[quote=Anonymous]Another thing that has to go is the ridiculous grading policies, including the 50% instead of zeros and flexible deadlines on major assignments. The only thing the 50% did this year was convince my students who were getting 10% on assessments that they were really close to passing because they had a 55% average based on total failure on assessments and their homework completion grade. They would have been better off switching to an easier class to rebuild missing foundations but wouldn't hear of it. And so they failed the class. The flexible deadlines are horrible for students who have little self-discipline because they just encourage them to procrastinate and have work pile up, and they do even worse.[/quote]
