Questions, answered
Will it text students without approval?
No. WebRun only drafts the nudge in Twilio. The instructor reviews and sends it, nothing reaches a student automatically.
Does it apply a grade penalty?
No. WebRun only reports what's overdue. Any grading decision or late penalty is applied by the instructor in Connect.
What if a student submits late but before the nudge is sent?
It checks submission status fresh each run, so anyone who submits before the instructor sends the nudge is dropped from that list automatically.
