[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]50% rule? [/quote] Grade inflation. No child can ever get below a 50% on an assignment. Even if they don't turn it in. [/quote] It isn’t inflation, nimrod. A 50 is still an F. It reduces an F to a 10% range the same as any other letter grade and ensures if a kid has one bad quarter their entire year isn’t unrecoverable. [/quote] It's still inflation by setting a floor. What reasonable teacher is going to give a student who only did half the work or only got half correct the same score as someone who turned in nothing?[/quote]
