Case: Incomplete Work
I have a student who never turns in a completed assignment. He will answer a few questions on the classwork or assessment and then turn it in. He doesn't care what grades he makes or any punishment he may receive. I have contacted his mom, administrators and behavior specialist. The only way he completes any assignment is with an adult literally next to him telling him to go on to the next question. When I am able to do this, things are fine; however, I have 27 students in my class and cannot afford to spend that much individual time on a student. He is smart and I believe that this is all choice, not ability.
What do I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
It sounds like the assignments (and/or course) are not challenging him and/or are not relevant to him. Not all students need to complete all of all assignments to be successful. Depending on what you are trying to teach, maybe you should try altering the assignments. |

Comments: I think that the solution should involve the student in some way. Simply altering the assignments may not do anything, but if you talk to the student and see what he suggests, then you may find a way that could make the assignments more appealing for him to complete. |

Comments: It isn't always fair to alter assignments to fit the needs of just one student. With such a large class, you have to make sure assignments are appropriate for the majority not just one student |

Comments: I disagree, this sounds like the child just refusing to work, even if it is to easy for him or he doesn't like the material, they need to try to complete it anyway. |

Comments: I do not like this solution. You can not assume that a child is "bored" or is too advance in a class just by them not completing assignments. You shouldn't have to alter the assignment for one student, they should be completing the assignment that is given to the whole class. |

Comments: I don't think that's the case here and either way if an assignment is assigned it's expected all students complete it. |
