Who are we thinking about? by Aris Winger https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l What are the challenges? en-us 2022-11-18 18:46:35 UTC 2022-11-18 22:02:48 UTC hello@padlet.com low stakes canvas quiz at the break. Very high attendance for 8am course https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l/wish/2390475490 2022-11-18 21:23:15 UTC https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l/wish/2390475490 https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l/wish/2390476327 I have participation grade. Try to take attendance every time. I have a certain number of allowed unexcused absences and am generous about excusing absences. My attendance is pretty good]]> 2022-11-18 21:24:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l/wish/2390476327 I put a participation section where I require students to attend office hours at least 2 times over the semester (at least one before halfway point in semester) and last week of semester doesn't count. They also are required to be in attendance during their presentations and the class grades each presentation and 5 points are dedicated to the average of the class (5 points out of 100 so it is low stakes). https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l/wish/2390476616 2022-11-18 21:24:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l/wish/2390476616 Students who might fail my course and therefore not be able to graduate in Spring :/ https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l/wish/2390476895 2022-11-18 21:25:20 UTC https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l/wish/2390476895 A student who confided in me on Tuesday that she was sexually assaulted over the weekend.

Late semester or after a test is always a little thin. https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l/wish/2390477487 2022-11-18 21:26:21 UTC https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l/wish/2390477487 I ask them if they want points for attendance, then hold a vote. If they vote for it, I assign 50 points that everyone gets and use the popsicle stick method to keep conversations going during lecture. If their stick comes up and they are missing (unexcused) they lose ten points of the 50, and so on. https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l/wish/2390477581 2022-11-18 21:26:33 UTC https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l/wish/2390477581 Incompletes https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l/wish/2390477831 a relatively large number of students who are in this position this semester.... balancing what is reasonable, compassionate, fair to others, etc....]]> 2022-11-18 21:27:02 UTC https://padlet.com/ariswinger/dtj2w8594wcknn6l/wish/2390477831 Low grades on the last exam.
