Checkpoints can be completed until a project deadline. They are meant to keep you on track with the steps of a project, so I've put checkpoint deadlines in the course calendar to help you manage your time and stay on track with course expectations. If you don't finish the checkpoint with the rest of the class, please assume it is homework and finish it as soon as you can. Set up Office Hours help if you need!
NO late projects accepted. To receive credit for your projects, you MUST submit a complete final product and have all green or yellow checkpoints by the deadline.
As long as you submit a complete project on time, you will qualify for the 3 week revision window and can improve your scores with as much teacher support as you want!
NO late posts accepted.
