[quote=Anonymous]Don't waste your time trying to understand the APS standards-based grading. It's just a tool for teachers to avoid the hard work of preparing assessments and grading assessments. The teacher sticks out a wet finger and estimates the direction of the wind and that's it. Zero value to students or parents - it doesn't tell you anything about how your child is doing. Whatever little information is there is buried in meaningless fluffed up wording - I honestly don't know how parents put up with this nonsense. We were strung along with these APS "assessments" for four years until we had enough of APS and voted with our feet. Now we have actual assessments and finally understand how our child is doing.[/quote]
