Should the grade be replaced in the grade book or an additional grade given to him? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would think it could be dependent upon the reason why Johnny is re-taking the assessment. If I had a student perform poorly when they were sick, dealing with a death in the family, or some extreme situation I would replace the grade with the highest earned (original or re-take grade). If Johnny performed poorly, because he didn't want to make an effort I likely wouldn't allow a re-take in the first place. Instead I would offer Johnny and any other student wishing to earn extra credit the opportunity to do so.                 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: Great solution!
