I am still struggling with these things myself. My principal is pushing for
less subjective grading criteria and I personally think this might be a good
thing as it helps explain things to parents.
What do we think? On grading the end product.....
You have a student who says he's tried his hardest (as noted on his
self-assessment rubric), but still creates a poorly crafted and designed piece. He
was shown and explained the assignment's objectives and demos were done both
personally and as a group.
Another student produces a better designed and crafted piece, but it still
doesn't represent the super high-end work that is possible from maybe a few
in class.
Do both students get A's?
Personally, If they do,. I think I have a problem with that.
