grading projects for a first assignment REreminds me that ... some students
go way above and beyond the call of duty when doing projects ... in my
case, they have to download a file ... do some analyses ... and then do
some write up of what they found.
now, some go to alot to trouble to do very nice documents in a word
processor and have gone to fancy extents ... whereas others will use
(minitab is the package in this case) minitab ... and do all their work in
it (which is possible) and turn in an acceptable document ... say the right
things, etc.
the QUALITY of the document is not a gradable criterion (in my system ...
maybe it should be) ... but, how do any of you deal with this sort of thing
... whether it be a document to be turned in or some other assignment ...
some just go WAY over what is required ...
of course, penn state has no A+ grade category .. !!!
