No show, no grade :). If Rey aren't there to work with the team them they aren't there to sign the team application sheet, at least in my class.  I also have a team folder that I keep team grades on so everyone can see their team grade activities.  And folks that don't show get a big zero.  It's a good "stick."

Does that need to be in the syllabus?

Hello,

I am teaching my first TBL course and decided to grade the in-class application exercises (upon several threads here since the semester started, I probably wouldn’t do this again). Regardless, I am having a problem: absent students during graded in-class work. It’s not widespread but nonetheless each class maybe 1-2 absent students. I did not specify in my syllabus how this would be handled. My first reaction was to give the missing students a 0 for that exercise, but I do have the peer multiplier built into group grades. How have others dealt with this issue? 

Thanks for any advice,

Alison
