Case: Parent project
I have seen parents complete projects like dioramas for example, and it is very obvious they did the work. The other students who did their work on their own get very upset because they either compare that project to theirs and feel like theirs is bad, or they know the student parent's did the work and they think it is unfair. How should you handle the situation? Do you confront the parents? Should the work even be graded? What should you say to the other students?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think it is important to set the expectation with students when the assignment is given that you want to see work completed by the students. When work is turned in that is obviously completed by the parents I would pull the student off and ask them what they did to complete the assignment and ask questions that they should know the answers to if they did more of the work than their parents. If this seems to be a regular occurrence I would reach out to the parents and explain that it is important for the students to complete the assignments so they learn and grow. I would also share that parents helping their student be successful is encouraged but completing assignments for their student is not helpful but harming the student in many ways. |

Comments: This route is exactly where I would take it.
One note that I will make, though, is that some students might get nervous when being tested on their own project (if they actually did the project and your suspicions happen to be incorrect). I've done this back in school. You stumble over your words and have trouble remembering specific details just like test anxiety. It might be better to ask them about the HOW of the project as opposed to the WHAT. |

Comments: I agree with speaking to the student and explaining that he/she can seek advice from the parent about the assignment, but that it needs to be completed by the student. I would also reach out to the parents, explaining the impact on their child and their peers. |

Comments: I think this is the best possible solution to the problem, the clear expectations are sufficient but then the explanation of having a conference with the student and then if needed a parent-teacher conference is wonderful. |
