[quote=Anonymous]I’ve done it for homework as a means of saving time and giving prompt feedback on work. I find that students are more likely to ask questions in real time if we go over things immediately. But even then, I saw a lot of students reaching for erasers (grade was for completion, showing work only). I wouldn’t have students grade their own quizzes and tests without a back-up copy of the work. Maybe I’d be ok with students scoring each other’s work. Even then, I find that distractible children mark things in error all the time —both correct and incorrect answers. It’s possible, however, that this teacher has developed assessments, grading policies, and a classroom culture that minimize the possible negative outcomes. Though I’m skeptical, I’d be willing to hear him or her out.[/quote]
