Is the experience deadline based on my time zone, or the time zone in which each student is located?

The deadline is locked to your time zone as the instructor, based on your system time zone when you set the deadline. This ensures that the deadline is the same for all students, no matter where they are located.

Example:

You are an instructor located in the Eastern time zone in the United States, and you set the deadline for the assignment to 11:59 PM on September 15. A student in the Pacific time zone will see the deadline as 8:59 PM Pacific time.
