Your course's time zone determines:
As an example, assume your course uses the Central time zone and you have an assignment that is due on September 15 at 11:30 p.m. If you are located or working outside the Central time zone, you still must finish in the assignment in Central time. For example:
If you do not submit the assignment by 11:30 p.m. Central time, regardless of your time zone, the MyLab flags your assignment as late in the Gradebook.
The MyLab displays the course's time zone and its Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) offset on all pages that display a time-and-date stamp.
You don't need to track whether you are in Standard or Daylight Savings Time. The MyLab calculates these times and offsets as needed. For example, a course using Central time would display (GMT –6:00) Central Time during Standard Time. In Daylight Savings Time, the course would display (GMT –5:00) Central Time.
Note: If you are working on your own in a MyLab rather than in an instructor's course, the time zone is always Eastern Time (America/New York).
If you need to convert times across time zones, there are several time-zone conversion websites that you can find using your preferred search engine. Two of the more popular websites are:
