I had a chat with one of my students tonight about his progress in class. He's borderline failing, and I told him there's still an opportunity to withdraw from the class. Most students in this situation would drop the class, stop showing up, or just throw in the towel in some way. This student? His only question was "what do I need to do in order to pass?" I told him he needed to earn a C or D on the remaining tests, retake the first test (that he never took), and turn in homework. He said okay, see you Tuesday.
I like his attitude. :)
