Take a moment to read this excerpt below from a Tom Guskey article:
If you're a student, are these results realistic to what you experience in your classes with your teachers?
If you're a teacher, would you agree with these two studies based on conversations you've had with your colleagues?
If you're an administrator, how could you ever truly support and defend your teachers in an environment like this?
If you're a parent, how confusing could these levels of subjectivity be in understanding what your son/daughter actually knows?
This level of grading subjectivity is plaguing classrooms all over the world...
Maybe this 100 year old study should be 'refreshed' and reintroduced.
