LMS feature request - better handle late submissions when a grade is in the gradebook #1487

Problem you are trying to address with this feature

Currently (AFAIK) Hypothesis does not generate an LMS submission when there's a grade in the gradebook for that user. We're seeing a recurring problem in Blackboard Ultra when courses are set up to give automatic zeroes when a student hasn't made any submissions by the due date.

Instructors have asked us for ways to allow submissions after the due date so that they can adjust a student's grade once they submit late, using the grading bar to do so. It's not uncommon for instructors to want to give grades for late submissions, though I think we currently avoid creating these submissions to keep LMSs from displaying re-grading prompts when students continue discussions after a given due date.

While we've only seen this in BB Ultra so far, it looks like Canvas has a similar auto-zero feature.

A possibly-related complaint: https://app.hubspot.com/contacts/6291320/record/0-5/2395041899/

I am currently using Blackboard Ultra and I have noticed that if my student does not actually open the Hypothesis.is assignment they are exempt from the assignment. Meaning I cannot override the grade to be zero for not doing the assignment. Is there anything I can do to get my gradebook straightened out for Hypothesis.is? I hope this makes sense. Please let me know if I need to expound on my issue. Thanks

This sounds like a BB setting, but it might be worth investigating how we interact with this setting. I'll update if I can learn more.

Maybe part of a larger project where we handle non-Canvas grading better. Generating submissions, etc.
