For many students, it has proven to be beneficial. No problem! Please let me know how it goes!!

Students are so concerned with grades that oftentimes learning takes the back seat. I began my classes this semester with the following question "What do you think is more important? Making a good grade or mastering the standards of the class?" Most students said that it was a blend and that if you master the standards, then your grade will reflect that. It's disheartening that students are so grade focused, but I think that giving the feedback has been helpful as it forces them to worry about the feedback before the grade. This is one practice that I will keep doing! Thanks for stopping by!
