Dealing with D, U, and F Grades at the Learning Centered University: Brown Bag Lunch
- Do you teach a course with a high rate of failing or unsatisfactory grades?
- Do you have an opinion on the cause of this trend and how--or whether--the trend should be addressed?
- Institutional Research produces a spreadsheet every semester showing courses in which students have a high (greater than 30 percent) rate of grades at C- and below. What might we learn from looking at a few of these spreadsheets? You might be surprised to see which courses appear.
