FIAE Chapter 10

The topic of this chapter is redoing work for full credit. We should basically trust our discretion when deciding if work will be allowed to be redone because students should not take the ability to redo assignments for granted. Take into account outside factors that may have played a role in the quality of a students work, listen to them and try to put yourself in their shoes and think about how you would want to be treated if you were in the same situation. Wormeli suggests having parent sign an agreement about make up work policies. You should change the work that is being made up so that students cannot simply memorize something. The two sections that I found most important were not allowing students to make up grades near the end of a ranking period because at this point students are only thinking about the grade and to have students attach previous work so we can see progress. Basically use you best judgement and discretion.
