[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Way to prepare the kids for college or the real world. No retakes in college. Boss might go easy have to redo something every once in a while but not often. Of course this really sucks for the teacher as well. [b]Just save time and give everyone As. Kids who want to learn will, kids who don’t will wind up on the dole. [/b][/quote] I am a teacher. This is the logical conclusion. Unlimited retakes is not going to happen. Just dumb down the test and viola happy kids and parents and principals. [/quote] The kids who don't care don't take retakes under the current policy (open to anyone who gets under an 80 with the max possible being half of the missed points back), what makes anyone think the new policy would change things from them? The kids retaking will be the ones who are already working hard and doing well. They won't retake to pass a class, they'll retake to turn a 95 into a 97 [/quote]
