Recommended: An essay on creative thinking

I think the grade I deserve is a 90 or above. I think I deserve a 90 or above, because of three reasons. Reason number 1 is based on effort. Reason 2 is based on creativity, and reason 3 is based on relationships between others like helping them when they need it. I think I should be graded on effort, because of this. When I did photoshop for the first time I had no idea what I was doing. I had to ask the teacher multiple times for help even though we were making tutorials for photoshop. When I did my ornament for Christmas I knew exactly what I was going to put on it. I actually did it mostly without help from the teacher which was even surprising seeing last time I did photoshop I needed a lot of help. I think I should be graded on creativity,

  • 90/10 Grading System

    1193 Words  | 3 Pages

    I believe that to motivate students to do work, practice work needs to be worth more than 10% of a students’ grade. Ideally, I believe the grading scale should be closer to 75% knowledge, and 25% practice. I believe this would help students want to do their work because practice work is worth much more than 10%. If the students do not do any practice work, they can end up with a C, which in many cases is deemed average. Also, those who do their practice work well can use practice assignments to bring up bad test scores. Due to this, more students will do well on their practice work, therefore leading to better scores in tests because students are trying on practice work and they are doing work. Those on the school board may think that 75/25 would be too much weight on practice work, due to this I also think an 80/20 grading scale would be a good option. Seeing as students would still be getting more credit for their homework. The 90/10 grading system needs to be changed for Emma and for all the students at Austin High School in order to benefit them in the future, in both college and their future

  • Metacognition in Learning

    Last spring I was part of a tutor agency that provided activities to students from 1st – 6th grade. Such agency main purpose was to give students a set of mathematical problems or English pieces of reading in order for them to have an outstanding outcome on these two subjects at school. During my tutoring sessions I had a 4th grade student named Carolina who had a difficult time keeping focus, understanding the concept, and fully interested. She preferred texting in the middle of our session or making excuses to go to the restroom. I honestly felt helpless for her, and I didn’t know what to do and how to help her raise her grades. I realized that our tutoring sessions weren’t any help for Carolina since her mom showed me her grades which got worse. I finally decided to plan my tutoring session with her ahead of time, so I can make it interesting and more effective for her to learn but in a fun way. I choose to get different colorful cards, markers, and everything that could grave attention. When our session started I used those markers and cards to show her how to solve a mathematical problem by color coding every different step of the problem. Later, I asked her to show me the mathematical process she used in a similar problem by using those colorful cards and markers. Apparently, I make her use all these fun utensils that made the learning process more fun and effective. At the end of our session, I gave Carolina a quiz regarding the content we covered, and she did make a progress. I noticed that for Carolina the use of colors at every different step actually made her learn. Maybe it was due to the strategy that I showed her and the ability for her to remember those steps by associating them with each color which I was amazed an...

    The process was good even if I found some difficulty in assessing a pseudo code that wasn’t too clear, I hesitated in the beginning on how to assess the assignment and what grade to give to it, but the solution given by the instructor helped me a lot in resolving this issue. The peer assessment process provided me, as always, a good opportunity to discover different views and new ways to resolve a problem or to answer a question or an assignment.

  • What Really Going on With the Grading System

    1242 Words  | 3 Pages

    In today’s society we feel the need to be graded in order to learn. The topic of the grading system has sparked three essays, by three different authors, about the pros and cons of the grading system. First, Jerry Farber, professor at University of California at San Diego, wrote A Young Person’s Guide to the Grading System (333). Next is Steven Vogel, professor at Denison University, who wrote Grades and Money (337). The last two authors in this compilation are Stephen Goode and Timothy W. Maier. They both are journalists for Insight on the News. While each of these authors have their own point of view on the grading system, all three essays talk about how being graded affects learning.

    When I began high school I was taking a computer science class. The class presented many difficult concepts, some of which I grasped immediately. Others, such as the concept of object-oriented programming design, took me awhile longer to understand. When the concept was first explained to me during my first semester of computer science, I did not understand it at all. I thought to myself, “I have no idea how to use this, I don’t even know why it useful, oh well, I’ll just ignore it for now.” However, as I continued throughout the class, learning new classes and me...

    Concerning my cultural awareness, I scored a 43 out of 50. This score seems accurate to me, as I have been working towards becoming a more culturally competent person since becoming a social work student. Being culturally competent is an ongoing process, and I believe it would be incredibly difficult to be fully competent as there are so many different and ever changing cultures. Although a perfect score may be attainable, I believe my score shows my cultural awareness to be satisfactory with room for improvement.

  • Homework Should Be Independent Essay

    658 Words  | 2 Pages

    The bell rings; you’re sitting in a hard plastic chair, looking up at the teacher, she is passing back your latest test. Carefully, she sets it upside down on your cold wooden desk, and shakes her head. Carefully you reach out and snatch the paper; in red ink, written enormously, was the letter E. The only thought that raced through your mind was “I should have done my homework.” The homework given to students is helpful and effective for learning and developing knowledge, which aids the students to score better on tests. Learning to work independently is another great benefit of doing your homework as. However, some people view it as stressful.

  • Persuasive Essay On Good Grades

    “What makes a child gifted and talented may not always be good grades in school, but a different way of looking at the world and learning.” That’s what the senior United States Senator from Iowa Chuck Grassley once said. When students get a “F” on their exam, that does not necessary means they are stupid, or they do not know the material. It could only mean they have a different way of learning, or a different way of explaining the material which the teacher is not aware of. There are different ways of learning that students have, and there are different ways they apply their knowledge into real life. Therefore, grades are not the best way to judge the students’ standing in their classes, nor is it the best way to judge their learning process. In addition,

My work ethic and my organization go hand in hand. If I do not keep everything in order I’ll miss due dates and not manage my time well, but I’d say for managing 17+ credits a term, 30 or more hours of work, practicum, and homework I do a pretty great job.
