    Incomplete grades also require a written medical excuse. Incomplete grades do not apply to students who simply "disappear" for the majority of the semester. Incompletes typically apply to those students who have medical or other university excused-­‐absences, miss a short period, and who have completed the majority of the work (e.g., family emergency or serious illness mean final paper cannot be completed on time, NOT failed to complete anything after Module 2). Students should alert me in advance (when possible) of any potential difficulties in meeting course requirements.…

    I had no social life because of school and how they always had boring work to do had to be done by Monday. The grading system that is suggested by Jerry Farber is a credit system. His system would make it so that it won’t be a pass fail system and would help out everyone. Jerry Farber wrote an article called “A Young Person’s Guide to the Grading System". The main point of Farber’s paper is that the current grading scale doesn’t work and he wants to change the scale to a credit system which he had created by himself and makes sense.…

    Grahamism was a 19th Century alternative medical therapy/health reform movement. “Living right” was the key to this alternative medical therapy, as it was said that the body would take care of itself naturally without interference. This health reform system was created by Sylvester Graham (1794-1851). Concerned for his own health, Graham began studying human physiology and nutrition, giving lectures along the eastern states. He published the leading text on health reform, “Lectures on the Science of Human Life,” and was very popular until his popularity waned in 1840 and he passed away in 1851.…

    A particularly difficult assignment is handed back with a large red C-minus glaring from the top corner. Embarrassed and upset, the student shoves the paper out of sight and does not answer any questions about how the assignment went. People think differently of a straight-A student than one who is usually in the C range. However, although letter grades are heavily relied on, they are so subjective, since a grade of A in one class might translate to a C in another, or vice versa. Which raises the question of why we place so much emphasis on the letter grade.…

    The pass or fail system is a better way to grade than the standard A-F grading system. First reason why I like the pass or fail system is because students worry less about each assignment grade. For example, having to see a D or an F on a report makes me feel like a failure. I am sure nobody likes to feel like they failed in anything, especially in an easy class. Next, the pass or fail grading system is better because it makes it easier for teachers and students. Teachers already have to do enough by grading assignments. Having to afterward go into the grading system and actually put in grades makes it even more work for them. As for students, they could simply check their grades quickly and see whether they passed the class or not just by…

    An Incomplete will not be granted for reasons of poor academic performance or failure to use efficiently the time allotted to a course. Rather, it may be given when a student is unable to complete the requirements because of extenuating circumstances. Incomplete Forms are available from the Registrar’s office and must be completed by the professor, and the student, and include the student’s plan of completion. This form must be completed prior to the end of the term in which the student is currently enrolled. The grade of I must be removed by the end of the term following the receipt of the I. Failure to remove the I prior to the end of the next term automatically results in an Unsatisfactory (U) on the student’s transcript. Upon completion of the course requirements, the I may be replaced by the earned grade on the transcript. Two concurrent Incompletes automatically place a student on academic probation. Military service and other unavoidable circumstances are taken into consideration by members of the…

    Percents, points letters, averages. What do all of these have in common? They all are different factors that deal with grading high school students. The school board in Fort Wayne Community School system introduced a new grading policy for all the high schools in the district. They got rid of a traditional zero to 100 scale. This 2012-2013 school year we operate on a twelve point system. I believe that the new grading scale is causing more problems for students instead of helping them.…
