Chapter 10: Conditions for Redoing Work for Full Credit
Chapter 10 talks about the stipulations and protocols that make redoing work less demanding on students and more helpful to students. A really good point that the chapter makes happens when the question is asked: How would we want to be treated as an adult? I know that if I have a lot to get done, and end up not doing my best work on a paper or an essay I would like the chance to redo it. If I want the chance then why wouldn't my students want the chance? Just because they're younger than I am does not mean that they are all that different. The other part of the chapter that I liked was when it said that as teachers we can reserve the right to change the format for all redone work. If we allow students to redo work then they should respect our decisions as teachers if we want to see something more, or ask them to stay for extra help on it. After all we really only want to see the succeed.
