[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. I see a mismatch between formative and summative. DC has lots (10+) formative assignments with 5/5, 9/9, or the occasional 11/12, etc. and then bombs the summative with 32/65. Yes, he'll be doing the retake. But that's a big disconnect. Makes no sense. [/quote] There is no disconnect. Your son didn’t study/doesn’t actually grasp the material that is tested. Formatives are graded mainly for completion. Makes perfect sense.[/quote] Formatives range from edutech assignments to quizzes, everything that is not the big test.[/quote]
