[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]2) College courses usually have 2-4 assessments for the entire semester, while K-12 courses generally have 6-20 assignments and assessments per quarter. [/quote] Wait 6 to 20? If this were case my ADHD child could keep up and thrive! She is very smart and catches the content very quickly. When she turns something in, its high quality. Its the keeping track of everything. I just counted and in [b]1 class [/b]-which isn't even the one with the most assignments, she had [b]76 thing[/b]s to turn in for a grade. They range drastically in point value and % of the grade. [/quote] 76 things in one class for one quarter? That's ridiculous! [/quote] As a point of reference, I teach elementary. That's how many assignments I give my students for the quarter for all four subjects.[/quote]
