Grading and UN-Grading: Get Acquainted with Both - Rubric Handouts:
When you are planning your syllabus, assignments, and assessments, and when you are in the throes of class and the often hurried discussions that precede or follow a class, you should keep FERPA requirements in mind. It's tempting to "help" a student who has "only a few minutes" and provide a grade and reason for it while s/he is getting materials into a backpack and other students are waiting around in a clump. But you have just violated FERPA regulations. The materials below provide guidelines to help you in deciding what your course of action should be in many situations. If you have additional questions, Jeannie Broskey, the Associate Registrar for Student Records, is happy to answer them. Contact her at jbroskey@iup.edu.
