Interesting guidance about the importance of establishing a late work policy. I would add that in the COVID era, there is still a lot of grace being given to students in deadlines and due dates. So, while it is helpful to students to establish and maintain a clear and appropriate late work policy, in my experience it is also important to prepare to make exceptions. In the last three years, we have learned more about the barriers students face in their home lives and teachers have become more flexible about how learning can be demonstrated. So I would add that clear expectations and reasonable flexibility are key components of a 2022 syllabus.
