[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Guys you just excuse kids from the stuff they can’t do virtual and make sure there’s plenty they can do virtual. If the class summative is a Socratic, they do a written response if they are out. It isn’t that hard. [/quote]

It depends on the class, the student, and how the assessment is constructed and scored. An individual written response doesn’t gauge the student’s ability to build on or modify other people’s points, nor does it allow the student to write a critique and evaluation of other groups’ seminars.

Yes! I have explained this to parents before. [/quote]

Yes we all know this. I teach, I’m not stupid. But if they are out they can’t respond to their peers’ comments either way. They can’t evaluate a seminar they aren’t there for. So you can have them write a written analysis, or transcribe peers’ responses to have them respond to in writing, or never do seminars. But acting like a Socratic seminar they aren’t there for is the ONLY way they can show mastery of those skills is just going to make you inflexible and your grading very difficult. Multiple kids might be in and out at any given time. You will have to adapt assessments for that. [/quote]
