[quote=Anonymous]Focus on the process. It sounds like the C is due, at least in part, to lack of responsibility. I don't think I'd take the phone for the whole quarter, but I'd set specific milestones (3 weeks or so?) with the potential to get it back then. The milestones wouldn't be the grade per se, but the process. Did she turn in all work? Did she study hard for the test? I'd probably even sit down and give her study questions before the test to assess whether she was prepared. If she studied hard and seemed to be ready for the test (based on my study questions) I wouldn't penalize the actual test grade if poor. If she didn't turn in assignments or didn't appear to study hard, I'd continue keeping the phone.[/quote]
