[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand how there can be “easy” or “tough” grading in math. Isn’t there only one right answer? Grading writing can be much more subjective, I know that, even with rubrics. But what is a “tough” grader in math doing differently?[/quote] Easier: Partial credit when a child does some steps of a multi-step algorithm correctly. Tougher: No re-takes, no extra credit, no partial credit. Particular rules about how work must be shown or how answers are displayed (boxing answers, including units where appropriate). [/quote]
