The opinion article by Trent Batson tells of how a teacher graded on how students participated in the class discussions. At first the students recieved very few points for not having the proper skills needed or they didn't know the subject well enough to talk in depth about the topic. As they kept going on with the class the students were better able to talk about the topics and recieve more points.
Reaction:
I think that this would be a good way to grade students. The one thing that I find wrong with this is that some students may not feel the need to participate which will hurt his or her grade.
Questions:
1. How did the teacher come up with this type of grading system?
2. Does it help students to learn?
3. How much would a student have to say to recieve all the points?
