[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Anonymous wrote: That’s always been my concern — when do teachers have time to read 30 kids essays?[/quote] MS/HS teachers routinely read 85 to 150 student essays for each major assignment.[/quote] Sure. But they only do English or History, not ALL OTHER subjects like elementary teacher. That’s probably one paper a semester - let’s say they take 10 minutes a paper. That’s 1500 minutes or 25 hours. So with 1 hour planning period per day, it would take them 5 weeks to grade one assignment. Sure some teachers work evenings and weekends — far fewer do after pandemic. So something had to give; I’m guessing it’s the time per essay, they whittle it down to a 2 min edit and read and grade, and done in week [/quote]
