Belanoff Questions - Liz

1. In Pat Belanoff's "What Is a Grade?" there seems to be a good portion of the paper spent discussing and celebrating the concept of "subjectivity" within writing classes (148). Does this concept that writing is diverse and "subjective" bother you or make you nervous about teaching next semester?

2. How do you plan to grade and provide feedback for your students? Will you use a specific rubric, grade with another teacher, or use any other tools to help you?

  1. I am unsure how I want to do grading, but what I am sure about is that I want to focus on spreading the %s out so students will need to focus on everything, rather than getting As on three big assignments that frontload their grade. Not only does this take the pressure off of meeting a certain grade for the paper, so they feel freer to experiment, but it also could promote better participation and in class discussion.
