[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a teacher, I am excited by the 5 day blackout period at the end of each quarter. I am worried that the 50% rule seems murkier than ever —regardless of product or accuracy is wild. That that mean Larla can draw 5 misleading doodles about Westward Expansion and get 12.5 points for a 25 point essay? [/quote] The points don’t matter in the end. The grade matters. It’s just a compressed scale. Just think of it as, on every task, the student is only graded in their worst half of the work, and the scale is 20% D, 40% C, 60% B, 80% A. [/quote]
