Abstract

In online asynchronous courses, students can submit assignments anytime during the enrollment window, often in any order they like. While previous research has focused on the timing of assignment submissions, Cuccolo & DeBruler highlighted how the order of assignment submissions is associated with lower course performance in STEM courses. This study expands that research to World Language courses, highlighting that students’ final course scores decreased as deviations from the pacing guide increased.
