Your trying to tell me that teachers who kept teaching from those books without repercussions and those books being in the school library constitutes a ban? Oh my. 1 1 Link to comment

From the article: "Dr. Kazmierczak and WBLAS believe grades should be a measure of what a student knows and has mastered in a given course. " Dr. K, what grade should a student receive if he/she "fails" to know or master what is expected in a given course? 2 Link to comment

From now on you get a "rainbow" if you mastered it and a "crocodile" if you did bad. So, I am one of those teachers that hates to give an F (for the final report card grade) because of the extra f#&%ing work involved. So GET RID OF THE F! 1 Link to comment

But if I do, it's because the kid is incredibly lazy and refuses any and all opportunities I give him/her to at least get to a passing grade. Plus, my class isn't hard to pass! So when I do give an "F", it's incredibly satisfying to explain to the parents that I wasn't bluffing! 1 Link to comment

Yeah, you have to try to fail for the most part, unless your school is systemically racist of course. But I will do everything in my power to make sure a kid will pass instead of fail. I have a student that is currently failing, they have not turned in about a dozen assignments. When I checked the grade the other day and saw it was an F, I knew right then and there...I was a racist, even though the kid is white. Once I bumped it up to a D, I no longer felt like a racist. 1 1 Link to comment
