Case: No make up exam policy
A student misses a mid-term exam worth 40% of her grade. She tells you she was in the hospital. You have a "NO MAKE UP EXAM" policy and the student appears to be OK. What course of action do you take next?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would take the student on the side and ask them to tell you everything that happened. I would want to get a second chance. You never know why the child really missed class. Also, look at the student's attendance;if it is good, I would give another chance. |

Comments: The student could have gone through an extremely difficult time, so I wouldn't go so far as to ask them to tell you "everything." However, I would request that they bring you proof as to why they couldn't attend that day. Otherwise, it's just their word. |

Comments: Even though you are their teacher, I don't feel that you need to know all of the information behind them missing school. If they said they were in the hospital than a doctor's note is all you need. |
