[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A rolling gradebook is a mathematically accurate way to calculate final grades. For a teacher who put in the same 9 assignments in ever quarter, there is no difference in the end result. For a teacher who put in 2 grades 1st quarter and 22 4th quarter, this smooths it out. Teachers no longer have to cram units to fit in before the end of the quarter, because testing the following week is no big deal. It's lovely. Quarter grades are just a "here's where you are now, heads up!" type thing. The time management piece is separate and does not need to be lumped into it. That is an individual school/teacher decision to accept late work or not. Our school's rule is 10 days with a late penalty. It was that way before the rolling gradebook and after. --High school math teacher[/quote] Thanks. Just saw that you answered my previous question.[/quote]
