[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't want to make life harder on teachers because they are dealing with lots of technological issues too.

I put this on standards done in designing the different IT platforms.  If they put in some standards with clear requirements for teachers, it would make life easier for all parties.

YES! THANK YOU! As a teacher, I feel the same. I try to follow the MCPS guidelines, but some principals (I've been in a few schools) run their own show.  Some teachers are forced to allow late work, require no deadlines - have zero late penalties, not allowed to give any zero under any circumstance.  It's not like I wish to do that, but when you have one policy saying one thing, and another policy saying another thing...we don't know what to do...and that is where communication starts to break down. It's really frustrating for the student, the teacher, and the families.  I wish they would just force us to follow ONE. I would feel much more confident with grading, students would have clear expectations, and parents would have a greater understanding of how to support their children.  [/quote]
