Resolving Incomplete Grade

Students who receive INC grades have not completed all of their classwork, but their instructors still expect them to pass if they catch up. Before your INC grade turns into a "FIN," students may have an opportunity to finish the missing work and receive a letter grade. The majority of INC grades in BMCC are resolved with FIN ("F" from Incomplete). We tasked our interns with coming up with a solution to the INC grade problem at BMCC that involves AI technologies.
