NAVY SCHOOL MANAGEMENT MANUAL

Is recommended by an ARB decision.
Exhibits poor performance on test, homework, and
assignments.
Fails to achieve the minimum passing grade on a progress or
within-course comprehensive test.
Fails a critical objective. This remediation should take
place even though a student has passed the test.
Students shall be given the opportunity for remediation and
retesting prior to the convening of an ARB.
NOTE
While mandatory remediation may occur in any and all of the
above situations, each situation may require different
methods of remediation. For example, the time spent,
instructor involvement, location of remediation, and
structure of remediation may all vary based on the type of
failure, i.e., test failure or objective failure.
When a test is failed, students may receive remediation on
the entire test or the part of the test failed.
Remediation should be formal and structured for a test
failure.
Formal/structured remediation refers to written
guidelines for the student on specific areas to study.
Quizzes may be administered and instructors should
evaluate student performance. Grades on the quizzes
should be recorded in the student's record.
A formal structured remediation program requires
direct supervision and active involvement by the
remedial instructors.
When the test is passed, but an objective is failed, the
following points should be considered:
If the objective failed is a critical objective,
remediation may need to be formal/structured.
If the student clearly does not understand the
objective, remediation may need to be formal. An
indication of a lack of understanding is the number of
missed items.
Remediation may be accomplished one-on-one by the
instructor. The student may also be allowed to
complete some additional assignment individually in a
non-structured environment.
