Owasso School District v. Falvo Follow Up Questions:
Do you think it's okay for teachers to have fellow students grade and
report other students' work? Is it okay for teachers to have a student solve
a difficult problem on the blackboard?
What other ways could the teacher/school have dealt with Falvo's
complaints?
In some schools students who have not received a minimum grade cannot
participate in sports or other extracurricular activities. The schools do
not give out this information, but it's clear to people that the student in
question received a poor grade. Is this similar to the Falvo situation? Why
or why not?
(If your teacher has asked you to type responses to these questions, typing space and
a print key are located below.)
