Topic: Would you still do your work if you weren’t graded on anything?

September 8th, 2008 at 12:16 pm
When you say graded, you don’t mean other kinds of feedback, do you? So, if I did something, and then you would give me some feedback, but no grade, I would find that helpful.
I think that there’s more than a grade involved in schools. For example, we had a garden in Ms Sanchez’s class last year, and we worked on it - no grade attached, but it was fun, and then we worked with other students, so it’s really hard to let them down by not participating, so not only we worked, but we worked hard, and challenged each other to work better.
