[quote=Anonymous]I agree with limited retakes. I also think that the the student should be expected to complete additional independent activities in order to be given acces to the retest. My DD had an amazing Physics teacher that offered points back on test if the students researched and wrote an explaination about each question that got wrong. They were then able to take a similar, but more difficult, exam. This allowed the students the opportunity to ensure they understood every concept. The end result was every one of the students in this class earned a 4 or 5 on the AP exam. This is where it mattered and showed that the retest policy really did work as a learning tool. I suppose the question is what is the goal of the teacher? Is it to teach or is that every student learns? [/quote]
