[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sidwell! And to the posters questioning science and math— how can you deflate? I’ll tell you—- essay answers on both that are graded on random specificities. Not just right or wrong, but how you present the answer. No AP’s, no A+’s, no bump for honors or accelerated classes. [/quote] Random specificities = your opinion. I assume the teacher has a set rubric that they will happily provide the students after the exam Forcing students to explain or justify their work is not grade deflation. In fact, it is actually testing who understands the material. The last line of your post is simply stating the grade inflation doesn't exist - that is a good thing. But it does mean there is grade deflation. [/quote]
