![]() Or, better yet, late drop your higher workload courses and finish out the easier ones. It may be better to take a few L's and try to scrape by as best you can this semester than to give yourself 1/2 a semester's courses to finish at a self-motivated pace (after you may have forgotten the material from the first 1/2 of the semester) on top of whatever work you have next semester. But I've definitely never had a student successfully convert an incomplete that needed to be extended by a semester into a passing grade. You have until the end of the next semester to resolve the incomplete before it turns into an F, though the instructor can request an extension. Not saying I blame the student, but these issues often rollover to some extent to the next semester and it's just hard to set a schedule for yourself to complete the work, especially when there aren't necessarily classes to attend and you're dealing with resolving the incomplete on top of current classes. Inevitably, I end up setting a schedule with the student to make up the work at the start of the next semester (if I'm even able to get in touch with them), and then it gets delayed, and delayed, and delayed, and then the student ghosts me. I have had a fair number of students that have needed to take incompletes due to mental health issues and it's just so incredibly hard to make up a significant amount of material when you're not actually taking the class. I am generally very willing to give students incompletes if they are having issues, but their rate of conversion to a passing grade is absolutely awful unless the only thing you need to make up is the final. We would probably come up with a schedule for you to finish the assignments. I might give you modified versions of the assignments given in your semester, or I might ask you to take the exams/quizzes I'm giving next semester if it makes sense with your schedule. For an online class, I'd probably extend your access to the course Moodle page so you could continue to access all the materials while you finish your incomplete. Searched for previous threads, came up empty, so here goes: What's the deal with the K:drive on the NCSU campus computers? Earlier in the semester I didn't have any problems, but now I can't seem to save files on the K:drive (or manipulate any existing files).First, what is an incomplete? It's an agreement between you and your instructor that you'll make up the work you've been unable to complete this semester next semester. Every time I try to I run into one of two different problems: 1) The computer tells me that there's a file permission error and I don't have access to save documents to that location. Somebody please help me out here, it'd be very much appreciated! 2) The computer says I don't have enough quota to process the command (which is bullshit because I have ZERO large files - mostly Word, PPT, and PDF docs). This is probably an issue with permissions from the admin side. Where is it at (which lab) also what OS? Further, are you using direct drive mapping or a program (winscp, expandrive)? I work for ITECS so if this is one of our labs I can put a case infor you and probably resolve it quickly.Īre you doing this on NCSU computers and have you tried different computers? They've had issues recently with the N drive too, but you should probably talk to NCSU IT help desk.Īre you sure you haven't reached your quota? This sounds exactly like what happens when you max your quota out. If its a backend Ill send it to Systems which I liase with. ![]() OIT/unity lab, you are SOL ^ As he says check your quota. ![]() Weve some backend scripts I hate and some linux stuff that will fill it up without you knowing. ![]() ![]() Turns out I had a couple huge files I downloaded to the Temp folder. They basically were sucking up all the spare file storage space. Also put in a request for more storage space on the server (100 MB instead of 50 MB). Doesn't appear to cost anything to make the request. Max you can do for free is 350 and since the new email change you can use all of it without devoting some to email. ![]()
