Day 11-Exit Slip

     Today in class the chapter 9 discussion group led discussion. We discussed how we would use technology to meet the standards for our specialty. The discussion group used Slide Rocket to make their presentation (new cool tool). Once again the topic of saying, "I need someone to ..." came up. This is a good way to get responses because nobody really wants to respond but if you need them to they will. The topic of grading came up during debrief, and I would have to say that I agree that a 90, 80, 70 grading scale encourages students to not take risks. I think that the way that this class is graded, through expectations met or expectations not met, is a great way to grade things. I think that this encourages students to do their best, while taking risks, because they do not have to worry so much about losing points; the student either met expectations or did not. We then went over the homework expectations for the week.
