Skeptical about skeptics
I haven't seen any discussion from you about giving somebody a second chance. You merely keep repeating your reasons for automatically giving somebody 50%.That rationale has been given several times, you merely keep ignoring it.
You keep ignoring the mathematics of grade scoring:
Consider a simple scenario of 5 grades. On the first two, you get a B, which translates to an 80%. Then your mom dies in a car crash and you fall apart. You miss two assignments.
What grade do you have to get on your last assignment in order to pass the class with a 60% minimum, if you receive score of 0% for the two that you missed?
What grade do you have to get on your last assignment in order to pass if you received a score of 50% (which is still an F) on those two that you missed?
I suppose if you ignore responses like:
Then yes, I have ignored the mathematics of grade scoring.If you are simply going to delete 0% or 10% or 49% and call the mark 50% then all you do is deny a student the knowledge that they either need to improve slightly or that they are completely hopeless.
