I guess I have a different perspective on appeals. I have a form for appeals that is kept in the team folder. After the tRAT, the team has the opportunity to file an appeals, but it must be a team effort and it must be submitted to me in the folder before the end of the class. I will not accept it later. There is no need to copy the question. The team identifies the question number, RAT number, etc. on the form. I feel it is a worthy use of class time to have students discussing questions on the RAT, checking their answers against the reading material, etc. Teams are allowed to do this immediately after they finish the tRAT, even while other teams are still working on theirs. So I don't use much extra class time on it, actually. Dianne York, M.S., MT(ASCP) Lecturer, Biology Lincoln University, PA
