Hey Jim, Just remember your good old days of teaching high school and aggravating students. I think it can be looked at many ways. He's trying to punch your buttons or he honestly forgot a pencil as has been done elsewhere. I opt for a combination of stick to your guns, you told them about scantron not accepting ink so have him do it again in pencil without seeing the test. Then tell him he won't get the second chance should it happen on the final. But knowing you, I know you'll also let him know that your door is open to him should he want to talk. Because you've always been one of the good guys.

Date: Thu, 20 Nov 2008 13:40:20 -0600 I need some guidance from the more experienced than I... Teaching is wonderful, you can learn new things everyday.... In all the years I have been teaching, which is like before dirt, I have never had this occur before. Yesterday, I had a boy (sorry, I am not being sexist), who filled out his scan-tron answer form with a pen. Guess what his score is? Yep, a zero. Sometimes he is not very nice, he has a rather "snotty" attitude when he comes to class. He likes to make comments under his breathe. So, oh mighty wise ones, what should I do? Do I hear a little snickering out there? Jim Matiya Florida Gulf Coast University [EMAIL PROTECTED] Contributor, for Karen Huffman's Psychology in Action, Video Guest Lecturettes John Wiley and Sons.
