[quote=Anonymous]How will parents react if their kids start coming home with Bs and Cs? A lot of parents I know would absolutely freak out. They don’t really care how much their kids have actually learned, they want all As. Anecdotally, I will say that the class I learned the most in and remember much of the material to this day, was the class I got Cs in when I was in high school. That teacher was known as a tough grader, and I worked really, really hard only to end up with Cs. I was mad at him at the time, but in college and then in my adult life, I am amazed at how much I learned and retained from that class. So, just one story, but it makes me think this study has a very interesting outcome. [/quote]
