Case: Is Retesting Ethical?
We have started implementing retests at my school. If students make below a 70, they have the option to retest. Many feel as though a lot of retests would be fluffing the grade, for once they master that standard, we eliminate that low grade and only count the higher one. Is this the right mindset?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I believe allowing students to re-test is perfectly fine. The teacher within the classroom should be able to differentiate assessments to ensure that students are able to assess successfully. On top of that, students should have to justify to the teacher that they are ready to reassess. Students can do this by doing extra work on what they struggled on, go to tutoring, or anything else a teacher may require before reassessing. The bottom line is teachers want to see students be successful, and if students can justify to teachers they are ready to reassess, then students should have the right to be able to reassess. |

| Comments: It gives students a chance to really learn what they did wrong by studying, going to tutoring, and proving they are ready to be retested. |

| Comments: I agree, I don't think re-testing is an issue. Students who want to re-test obviously care enough about their grade to take the test again & having them go to tutoring or do extra work is a good idea too. |

| Comments: I think having retests is a goo idea but I do not think who can retest should be determined by the first grade and instead by who shows a desire to learn more and try again |
