Case: Student Gives Up
I am in a secondary classroom right now for my internship. One of my students was absent for about three weeks at the beginning of the semester because of disciplinary reasons. He genuinely cares about his grades and checks his Focus account at least 3 times a day. However, because he was out of classes for so long, he believes that there is no way for him to catch up--he has virtually given up on this grading period. Because of this, whenever he comes to class he is always on his phone, never stops talking, and causes others to get off task. As an intern, I am at a loss at what I can do to get him to realize that it is never too late. My CT, likewise, cannot get him to pick up a pencil. Any suggestions?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I feel that if you created a compilation of all of the assignments that the student is able to do to better their grade would help them immensely. Not only will it help them see what they need to do to improve, but they will also see how this will definitely pile up over time. Be supportive of the student and potentially set times where you can work with them to help explain some of the work they missed, as the folder may get them started, but if they missed a few weeks they may have missed out on a few crucial lessons as well. |
