[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Retakes are a suck on teachers' limited time. I want kids to do the work the first time so they don't slow down the class and waste the teacher's time with emails and conversations about logistics just because some kid couldn't be bothered in the first place. [/quote] You seem to have a really low opinion of students. My kids try the first time and are usually very successful. The fact that they can do a retake on the occasions when they aren’t gives them an incentive to go back and figure out what they didn’t get rather than just moving on to the next thing. Hard to imagine most of the kids who chronically can’t be bothered in the first place are going to spend the time and energy on lots of retakes.[/quote]
