[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] But it is not the teachers fault that this is hurting students. It is the system that only gives us a small amount of time daily to plan and grade. And that time is often taken away for all of the other tasks. The system is set up that gives us a grading day at the end of the quarter. If you don't like, don't blame the teachers. Blame the system. Advocate for teachers to have time grade and give timely feedback. [/quote] +1 We can acknowledge that this pattern of last-minute grading is not good for students, and also acknowledge that, in general, teachers are grading this way because the system is totally flawed and leaves them very little time to complete an immense amount of work. (Of course, there will always be individuals who are less organized, and that's definitely a contributing problem in some cases.) If we want this to change, we need to advocate for more planning time for teachers and more staffing for schools. [/quote]
