It is reality. A zero can always be upgraded if the student cares. If they do not care about a zero they are not going to care about a % or "No Grade" A zero can motivate. https://padlet.com/stachonm/ysvxb8ttaiw7/wish/331016841 2019-02-13 19:54:05 UTC https://padlet.com/stachonm/ysvxb8ttaiw7/wish/331016841 We are sending the wrong message if we give them something for nothing.
