[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s P/F so you only need to out in a minimum of effort.  Once my kid had earned enough points to pass, she didn’t worry about spending too much time reading or doing retakes on any modules (I think you get 3 attempts on each) and still ends up with a pretty good grade. She took the session that overlapped school since she took another course that summer; the self pacing made it easy to schedule around other assignments. [/quote]It is NO LONGER like this.  “Grading for this course is pass/fail. Students must have an overall average of 64% or higher on the 140 Exit Tickets, 14 Module Tests, and Final exam to pass to the course. ALL 140 Exit Tickets, 14 Module Tests, and Final exam are mandatory regardless of reaching the minimum number of points prior to completing all the required assignments”. The way it is set up now you must take each exit ticket to proceed to the next followed by tests for each section. I also believe the start date is “ most likely” June 25 end date is July 29th. Last year summer dates were June 27-July 29[/quote]

I’m the pp you quoted and I never said my kid didn’t attempt every exit ticket. She did. I said that she put in a minimum of effort once she had enough points to pass, meaning she didn’t spend a lot of time on the lessons and just did each ticket once without caring about the grade so it didn’t matter if she guessed and/or got answers wrong (you don’t need to pass each individual ticket, just the course as a whole).
