Dual credit

<p>My daughter did a dual credit for ORU last year. She was doing great at first she had a B. Then she tore her ACL and she was in the middle of my ex husband and I divorce. So she started falling behind, she emailed her teacher and explained everything to him and he have her another chance. She missed her final exam because her highschool wasn't clear with her of when she was suppose to take it. She emailed her online professor and asked him if she could take the final because the highschool told her to take it during class. Her professor emailed her back and said "you were suppose to follow the online schedule." So she couldn't take it . She's suppose to play basketball in college , but might be on academic probation because the professor gave her no points for her work she made up. We contacted the school and talked to the VP of the college and she told us that the professor didn't thin her work was good enough so he gave her an F even though she followed all the guidelines. There were a few assignments where all she had to do was definitions . But she got no credit. So I'm very confused and upset about where this is going. Where do we go with this ? </p>

<p>I don’t know what ORU is or how old your daughter is but my D16 is taking a course through the local university and she is responsible for her work. If the prof gave her one chance I think that’s enough, Can she take it over to replace the F?</p>

<p>She made up ALL of her work in 2 days, she definitely took advantage of the chance he gave her . We are trying to see if she can take it over. We are going to have a meeting .</p>

<p>I be worried more about the fact she received an F than the fact she didn’t get any credit. That F is going to be on her record. I’m not sure what the schools policy is but I would try and see if retaking it will replace the F instead of just averaging with it.</p>

<p>Is she going to ORU for college? That’s the only scenario I can imagine where this would be a problem in the futre.</p>

<p>College level classes are sometimes a hard step up for students. As your D has learned, instructors dont hold your hand like they do in HS. </p>

<p>I doubt you can do anything about the grade. Work on damage control with your D. Take another college course and walk her through it. She needs some confidence building at this point. </p>
