[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The grading becomes completely unmanageable for core classes if you allow retakes [/quote] We’re talking about teachers who do not allow even one retake. —MCPS teacher who allows 2-3 a marking period.[/quote] How many students do you have? I have a total of 152. [/quote] 151 as of last week. However, based on recent past rosters of as many as 157, I don’t think one more kid would put me over the age when it comes to reassessment. They relearn the skill and make fewer errors of the same time next time so you spend less time writing feedback overall. My course is heavy on writing so strategic reassessment helps me in the long run. I wouldn’t be surprised to learn many teachers who don’t offer retakes don’t provide written feedback either.
