[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I liked the policy. My senior failed 2 calculus tests initially, went over the mistakes with his teacher, studied again with a better knowledge, and got As. He wouldn't have mastered the content without the opportunity.

Is this pertaining to quizzes or exams? Or is it both?[/quote]

DP. Summative means tests. [/quote]

So in the above example, perhaps more quizzes along the way would have been beneficial to assess the student's understanding and need for reviewing mistakes with the teacher prior to the test. Math is a subject that warrants frequent evaluation and check-ins.[/quote]

I am a different PP, but DC's math teacher announced new, regular quizzes. So there at least will be an idea if ZdC understands or not before the test given that homework isn't graded. DC ended up with a C in this class for the quarter, so I guess the retakes helped him not fail, but there was no A emerging.[/quote]
