Grading...

... sucks. Ever read 100 assignments on the same boring topic, written by variably verbally skilled/eloquent students? OMG, GET ME OUT OF HERE!!! NOW!!!

5 ummæli:

hi mike! thanks for your moral support. I just handed in 98 (that's right, ninety-eight!!!) graded individual assignment and now I "only" have to grade 15 group assignments more... pass me the martini, please!

How's your grading hell? Any morsels of student wisdom to share?

Mike sagði...

lol - grading software doesn't lend itself to the quotable bon mots that grading essays do - i mean, i might chuckle at a poorly worded if statement

Herdis sagði...

Ok, so maybe I am slightly better off than you are :)

sounds like you make up with it with volume - my classes are nowhere near that large...
