[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They did a study in the 1980s where they gave the same paper to 4 different English teachers. The paper got a D, a C, a B, and an A. Unfortunately language arts is incredibly subjective. The teacher may not be biased against your kid per se. They just might be biased against your kid's writing style or point of view.[/quote]j That’s why they have rubrics now. It’s pretty easy to get As by following them. [/quote] Even with rubrics, grading writing is still, unfortunately, rather subjective. I'm saying this as a 6th grade teacher, though.[/quote] Depends on the rubric. I find the AP and IB ones less subjective, especially because you can view sample papers to differentiate between scores. [/quote]
