LOTS140 - Discussing Late Work, Retakes, And Revisions Life of the School Podcast: The Podcast for Biology Teachers
-
- Education
On this episode we discuss the sometimes challenging issues dealing with late work, retakes and revisions, particularly considering the grading practices through the lens of grading equity.
Show Notes:
We start this question with the goofy question. How do you personally feel when you need to get to an event by a certain time? Are you an early person, a late person, or does it vary?
Joining us from Illinois is Amy Kelly: I want to be an early person, and if I am on my own, I will generally be a little early because being late really stresses me out. When it involves my kids, I would say I am exactly on time or late though.
Joining us from Ohio is Jon Darkow: I like to be on time, but damn, something always comes up.
Joining us from Texas is Lee Ferguson: I am usually a little early for most things because I’m afraid of being late.
Aaron: I am very comfortable being on time, but as I age, I tend to be early for most things…I this may be a result of my wife’s desire to not be late.
Questions Discussed in this episode:
Setting the baseline, does your school have any grading policies in place about Late Work, Retakes, and Revisions?
Considering your own grading policies, how do you handle late work? Are revisions and retakes designed into your curriculum?
Are there any barriers to you offering more revision and redemption opportunities to your students?
