This one says the deadline for submitting Module 13 task is 16 December 2018. I thought I still had plenty of time, so I did other things.

On 14 December 2018, I decided to attempt the Module 13 task, but I found that the deadline was 10 December 2018. Being mislead by the two conflicting deadlines, I was absolutely stunned!
May I please be allowed to make a late submission?

Every online course has its course calendar in which rhe deadline of each task in each online practice module is specified. It's important that you check the course calendar since the beginning of the senester and make a note of all the task due dates. Ths team task (Task 4) of Module 13 which is due tonight will be graded by a teacher. Task 1 is not to be graded.

Thank you Ajarn Jaraswat for your reply. First, I was glad that I could still participate in the team task to earn some more marks in compensation for the lost of many marks as I already mentioned in the other post of mine. However, I found this:

It means the other members of my team do not participate in our team task, so I would earn no marks for this task.
For one of the 14111 tasks, the teacher awarded me the full mark of 20, but peers gave me 'zero'. I knew it wouldn't produce a severe impact on my grade, but it was unfair and annoying. Anyway, I got H for the 14111.
I think team tasks and peer reviews should be abolished.

Seeing no other team members on the team discussion board, I thought I would not earn any marks for Module 13 tasks, and I should give up.
At 23:38 hr., on 16 December 2018, I sussed out that the rule does not forbid one student from doing a team task on his or her own! So, on my own, I did a quick job and submitted it in time--just beat the deadline by a few minutes.
Actually, it's better this way; the marks I earn are attributed to my own performance...LOL.
