[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every teacher seems to have several dozen each quarter whereas our DC in private might have 10 total. A lot of it is busy work but it's difficult for teachers to grade and impossible for kids to keep track of. The Canvas system is so stupid that when the assignments are created it's unclear whether they are PP or AT until they show up as grades in the grades section which creates confusion for kids. Are teachers incentivized to give more useless assignments? [/quote] Another parent asked why there weren't more. It goes to show you can't please everyone.[/quote] I believe I’m the parent you’re referring to, but I wasn’t suggesting that there should be more assignments, much less more useless assignments. I was suggesting that whatever (hopefully useful) assignments are given should be graded rather than just checked for having been done, with no determination made as to whether or not they were done correctly.
