[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I think the teacher takes long time to grade because he has to check each step of the work.  The grade is not only based on the final answer, sometimes even a wrong answer but with all the correct steps -- the teacher will deduct less points. This is even more so for analysis. [/quote]

Other math Magnet teachers provided feedback within a week of the test taken except for the Pre-Calculus C/Analysis I teacher. If he can not grade the exam within 3 to 4 days, he should have given a shorter version of the tests that is reasonable for him to grade. He can provide other opportunities for students and can assign some grades to all of the homework assignments. Each Pre-Calculus/Analysis I test is so significant (as OP stated 120 points or more), there is no way students can just focus on his Math class 24 hours of the day. The teacher needs to reconsider his approach and think from student's perspective. He should build confidence in students IF they have to retake this in college. He was not easy to work with.[/quote]

So what's harder this class or functions? I mean others have stated that functions involve more homework than all the other magnet classes combined?[/quote]

Would also like to know this?[/quote]

Functions is significantly more difficult content-wise. More material in a shorter time frame. [/quote]
