FIAE Chapter 11

The whole dilemma with putting a zero in the grade book for not turning in an assignment is difficult to decide on. I see why a zero should not be put in; it drastically drops a student’s grade. However, I do not completely agree with giving a student who doesn’t do any part of the assignment a 60. What if a student completes the project, but doesn’t do well, like they earn a 60? I don’t think it is fair that a student who does nothing on the project gets the same grade. It’s not fair to the student who actually did the work. However, I do not want to put a zero in the book because mathematically it is awful. I just don’t know what the best way to do this is.
