SAM in MindTap Instructor HelpSkip to start of content.

August 2024

Improvements include due date extensions after the original due date passes, troubleshooting instructions for Access and Excel project errors, and notifications for students whose open exams have auto-submitted when the due date passes.

Due date extension improvements

If an instructor grants a due date extension after the initial due date passes, students can continue working on assignments without using a new submission attempt.

Macros help for Access and Excel projects

Students may experience system errors when they work on Access and Excel projects if they have macros blocked on their computer. MindTap now detects if macros are blocked and gives affected students instructions to change their macros settings when they start projects that use macros.

Auto-submitted exam notification

If an exam is open when its due date passes, students are informed that it has auto-submitted.
