[quote=Anonymous]We should bring back quizzes and tests (for math especially) on paper. I remember teachers giving us partial credit for math where the work was right, and the final answer was wrong. (2 points off normally, maybe just took 1 point off in this case). Now my dd gets dinged because she enters F(x)=3x+7 Instead of y = 3x+7. With the test switching back and forth between y and f(x). And the rest are only 20 questions, so there’s a 95 baseline just for a .. correct answer. So if she gets another two actually wrong, it looks like an 85, when in another world it would be a 90. I don’t care about the grade, it’s middle school. But, she puts in so much effort on math, and gets screwed over almost every quiz or test by entering in the answers. Things like it wasn’t entered in the exact right formatting for ordered pairs. Or .. look.. there’s a lot of numbers flying around in a 40m period. She sometimes just types them wrong from her hand notes.[/quote]
