[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We got too used to simply handing out As to the point that students and parents expect their kids should get and A when the reality is that an A should only be awarded for excellent work. In my class I tell the students that if an assignment has a 300-600 word expectation, if you clock in closer to 300 words, don't expect an A. You do bare minimum effort you're going to get a bare minimum grade.[/quote] That's ridiculous! If 300 words is acceptable, 300 words should be acceptable. Word count has nothing to do with quality, What trash "teaching."[/quote]
