Lesson 2: When´s the deadline for that homework?

If it is the content of subject matter learned, and the knowledge of a student that is measured when graded, why does it matter if an assignment was turned in late?

An answer could be because all the students in the class are receiving the same instruction and need to make progress together. If one of them falls behind, that holds up the rest of the class. Besides which learning to meet deadlines is good practice for meeting deadlines in real life.

There are a lot of deadlines in real life, too, not just in school. You shouldn't feel too bad if you miss the occasional deadline though. This happens to everyone sometimes.
