[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most high schools are now set up to reward diligence and persistence more than a full grasp of the material. I've seen programs that give kids 10 or more chances to get an answer right without any grading penalty. That's fine because diligence and persistence should be rewarded, but if universities want to figure out if kids grasp the material at a certain level, they must rely on testing.[/quote] Thanks for explaining this. I am just starting to figure this out with one extremely bright but unmotivated 6th grader in MS … nothing seems to matter other than keeping track of the 8 million different platforms to submit work on! It’s gonna be a long 6 years …[/quote]
