Home | How It Works | Stats Login | Register         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!) I would bypass the parents and administrators and simply talk to the student. I would ask him what is going on? Why he doesn't like to complete assignments? What can you do together to make it so where he does? I think giving the student a certain amount of control over their learning and asking them their opinion and how they feel will go a long way in making the student more willing to work with you.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) No The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue No The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: Great ideas but it is important to keep the parents and administrators involved.
