Proposal for Presentation
No-zero grading has been a debatable grading practice for many years. Teachers have taken both sides of the debate with some believing that a zero is too harsh and that it does nothing to motivate students to be better. Others believe that never giving a zero encourages students to slack off and avoid learning accountability in their formative years in education. This poster will discuss both sides of the no-zero grading debate and weigh the pros and cons of this grading policy.
