[quote=Anonymous]Do your child's MS or HS teachers give partial credit on math tests? DS recently took a test and made a dumb error when writing the answer in the answer box, even though the work showed he got to the correct answer. Think 4x + 2 = 38, he showed his work and solved for 9 but then in the answer space wrote 38. Technically he missed the question since the answer in the answer block was wrong, but the teacher could clearly see his work and that he knew the right answer. I was surprised that there wasn't a partial credit option as I recall at least way back in my day that was a thing and is why they always wanted you to show your work. Is that a teacher by teacher decision, or is that how APS policy works? Not a big deal worth complaining to the teacher, since I assume someone here knows the answer.[/quote]
