Case: Extra credit for attending study session?
I have a colleague that offered 5 pts on a test if students came in early and attended a study session before school. Is it right to offer extra credit like this? Shouldn't the material reviewed in the study session itself be the reward?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I feel that it is inappropriate to offer extra credit for an early study session. Unless a teacher can offer a study session that is open to all student, guaranteeing that all students have access to transportation for said study session and have equitable access to the available extra credit points, then I feel it is an unfair offering. Many students ride the bus and are unable to arrive at school early. Additionally, parents do not have available transportation to facilitate this opportunity for their child. |

Comments: I agree with your solution. If the students do not have or unable to provide transportation I do not think extra credit should be given. |

Comments: Yes, extra credit, when offered, should be attainable for all students, not just the ones that are able to get to school early. |
