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!) If the student is so adamant about his grade, try talking to him about ways to improve his grade since he can't retake the exam, and wants a good grade, maybe there are different ways to boost his grade, perhaps explaining to him where he lacked in so he could work on improving.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes 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 Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: This is a great idea because it would also show the student what he or she could do to raise the grade. You would be standing your ground while also helping the student receive a good grade. Rated On: October 11, 2017 2:48 am Rated By: JeVese
