[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I looked up the averages and it seemed to be around 25 yet teachers are claiming that they don't have time to grade or provide feedback because they have 160 exams. 25 doesn't seem that much higher then when I went to school yet back then teachers did assign papers, grade then and provide feedback. Something doesn't add up. [/quote] ES teacher here. I would estimate that 3-4 of my 5 weekly planning periods of 45 mins each are taken up by meetings. I usually plan at home and get to school early to grade. I have 34 students this year. If I had to write extensive comments on all of their assignments, I might as well just live at school. If they want to raise our salaries so we spend more time grading, that works for me. I "volunteer" 2-4 hrs per day trying to do planning and grading. For this, I earn $50K. [/quote]
