[quote=Anonymous]I just spoke with a language instructor in MCPS. She says that teachers have discussed the issue and there are two different opinions. Some say that they should correct everything, but only take off points on what the kid was supposed to know for that test. Others say take off points for all mistakes. I see the first way as a way to get more kids to pursue higher levels. The second way would make them more stressed and more likely to bail. I prefer the first since I want kids to be multilingual. I my profession (healthcare), they realized that people didn't take the BLS (CPR) and ACLS courses because they were too intimidating. Things got more relaxed and more people stated to take the classes. That probably results in more lives being saved. [/quote]
