Case: Stalker student
A student receives an "F" on a test. He protests his grade and is adamant about your changing his grade or allowing him to re-take the exam. You stand firm on your position and tell him that there are no make-ups or extra credit. His tone becomes increasingly aggressive. He calls you, he emails you, and he waits for you after class. As a teacher, what is the best way to handle this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The first thing I would do in this situation is contact my immediate department head or administration to inform them of what I am going through. No teacher should have to put up with harassment in any way no matter who it is from. |

Comments: If I was in this situation, I wouldn't use this solution because it doesn't give me insight how to handle the situation other than just telling the administrator. |

Comments: While getting in contact with the administration is a great idea, the teacher should also talk to the student about his behavior. Maybe if he understands how his tone and actions are inappropriate, he can fix himself and find a better way to go about this situation. But, if he continues to be disrespectful and threatening, go straight to the administrators. |
