a. largely ineffective, for although Ms. Calhoun does ensure that students complete their work accurately, the process means that large amounts of time can be lost while students wait. b. largely ineffective, because Ms. Calhoun should do this only at her desk so traffic flow is not impeded by the line that forms. c. largely effective, because no student can turn in a paper on which he or she has only tried half-heartedly. d. largely effective, because with this procedure in place, all students turn in all assignments every day.
