[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Usually participation is 10% of the grade. If your kid is averaging a B+ on assignments and papers, they can still eek out an A- if they get 100% of the participation grade. The key is probably to figure out how to boost their quality of work to an A-. If they can get just a little better, then they can usually get an A in the class if they earn all of the participation points. The best kids learn how to game the system early. Go talk to your teachers and ask for feedback on the essay. Make corrections on successive essays and assignments using the previous feedback as guidance. [/quote] In top schools there is no participation grade. [/quote]
