[quote=Anonymous]I am a HS teacher and I don't allow retakes nor does my department as a general policy. We are measuring mastery. If you know exactly what you got wrong and then retake a test that artificially inflates your grade based on that, that's not mastery. I also get really annoyed with kids who receive an assignment back with points marked off and want to make corrections to resubmit. No. I am assessing what you KNOW and can show me you know. Kids really really seem to struggle with the notion that they may need to work to improve. I am not trying to see that you can redo an assignment after specifically being told what you did wrong.[/quote]
