Can a teacher give out an assigment that is due in two days??

I have this one teacher, thats been doing it and is getting me really angry.

Surely there is a rule against it?

Check your assessment handbook.
You cant get a HSC assignment like that but non-assessment "tasks" can be given out as is.......
ie is it HSC or internal/inclass??

if it's an actual official hsc assessment, they're required to give you at least two weeks notice. they can, however, give you unofficial stuff with as little notice as they want.

 

[aud]

Yes... if it's only an assignment

If it's an internal assessment for HSC, however, I don't think so, I think the notification has to be two weeks before the actual task is due

 

[greeninsanity]

If it's not an assessment... don't do it.

 

[juventino]

OK...this is how it all works...

Out of the blue(last Friday) she decides that hw is going to be an assesment task add all them up to get an overal mark, because -and I quote- "it was too hard to think up something to give you"


?! Is this suppost to happen?

 

[glycerine]

are you in year 12? then no

if it actually counts towards something 2 weeks notice is required ( hhe i just thought of it as i wrote it 2 weeks notice lol the movie) but yeah if it doesnt count they dont have to give you notice

Odds are it's not a cross form assessment, hence not HSC asessable. So she's perfectly entitled to throw a weekend assignment at you.

yeh but not doing them could result in a lower report mark.. and sometimes u need to include reports when applying for things

 

[kimmeh]

actually, not doing them would result in a non serious attempt to the course. from there, then you can actually get an N award and fail your course.

If you look up Juventino's profile, under Subjects, his subject unit total is only 10... therefore, he must be in Year 12...

 

[juventino]

I am a year 12er

 

[juventino]

And my subjects add up to 12, thank you very much. *crosses his arms in a childlike manner

 

[aud]

I suppose then she could, seeing as how it's a cumulative assessment, so if say you had 30 pieces of h/w throughout the year each piece would only be .5% of say 15% total...

And you should check your profile - you only have 5 subjects listed, ie. 10 units

oh yeah, i got maths too....but that isn't a real subject, just something that spawned from hell itself.

lol no. 2 days is NOTHING. we needed 2 weeks min, and sometimes would get it with a bit less notice

Oi - don't knock Maths~! If you don't like it, then don't do it - simple.

 

[overwhelming]

yeah it is against BOS regulation. Appeal to the BOS.

Firstly, make an appeal to your school principal. If she/he refuses to act upon it, escalate the problem with BOS.

Thanks people....and sorry for knocking maths*hides head in shame...
