[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD came back complaining a severe penalty for late homework, making her nearly in the same position of turning in nothing. She might even get a C as the interim grade in this MS magnet core course. I actually appreciate this teacher very much. This could be the most effective way of teaching her the importance of being on time. Thank you teacher![/quote] Somebody is exaggerating something here. A “severe penalty” for late work is at most 10% of the assignment. The homework category is 10% of the grade. Say there are 5 assignments in that category. That makes each assignment worth 2% of the grade. A 10% penalty on 2% is 0.2% of the grade. Hardly an effect. :roll: [/quote]
