Geometry teacher not grading homework. Is this a "thing"?

The one college class I had with problem sets for every class was graded only for timely completion. The problem sets were discussed in class, and it was up to students to figure out what they had done wrong.

If the OP really wants to help his daughter, what he should do is not necessarily to check her geometry homework to make sure it is right. He will coach her on using class review time to identify what she has gotten wrong and to self-diagnose (and self-cure) her areas of weakness. Also on asking questions to learn what she doesn’t understand.

So, rather than checking her homework before she hands it in, he should ask her the next night what she got wrong the previous night, and what she should have done differently.
