Quote: Students will no longer be graded based on a yearly average, or on how late they turn in assignments. Those are just some of the major grading changes approved this week by California's second-largest school district. The San Diego Unified School District (SDUSD) is overhauling the way it grades students. Board members say the changes are part of a larger effort to combat racism. No accountability? what could go wrong? _________________ NO DISASSEMBLE!

“I know students all across the school district are really happy with the idea that these other accountability measures are no longer going to be defining their understanding of knowledge,” says Patterson.
No, they are happy they won't be accountable for piss poor behavior and can do whatever they damn well please with no consequences Last edited by Normanator on Tue Mar 09, 2021 9:23 pm, edited 1 time in total. |

Quote: Academic grades will now focus on mastery of the material, not a yearly average, which board members say penalizes students who get a slow start, or who struggle at points throughout the year. OK . . . on the surface, I could potentially be okay with that. But no details are given -- how is that "mastery" measured? One big test at the end of the year? The teacher pulls a number out of his/her ass based on what they think of the student? Quote: the board will also review potential student disparities stemming from its zero-tolerance disciplinary policy on cheating in the coming weeks. Ah yes. This sounds logical. They should probably review their zero-tolerance policies on stealing and stabbing as well. _________________ Steve Benefactor Life Member, National Rifle Association Life Member, Second Amendment Foundation Patriot & Life Member, Gun Owners of America Life Member, Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms Legal Action Supporter, Firearms Policy Coalition Member, NAGR/NFGR Please support the organizations that support all of us.

It's called "the bigotry of soft expectations", this is all part of the left's plan.....turn everyone into victims that require their intervention to make the world fair and safe.
The left are the real racists, they do not want anyone of color to be as good as them, so they make them into victims, make them dependent, create a world in which they don't have to compete or work hard, that way the left can feel superior and pat themselves on the back....a virtue signaling circle jerk _________________ Actor portrayal, Action figures sold separately, You must be at least this tall to ride, Individual results may vary, Sales tax not included, All models are over 18 years of age, upon approval of credit, Quantities are limited while supplies last, Some restrictions apply, Not available with other offers, At participating locations only, Void where prohibited, Above terms subject to change without notice, Patent pending.

I always thought that having lower expectations of people based on the color of their skin was racist.
Where is the part of MLK Jr's. "I have a dream" that will judge people based on the content of their character going to come into being? Progressives are going to "woke" their way into total and utter chaos. _________________ Liberals never met a slippery slope they didn't grease. I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them. |

They should probably review their zero-tolerance policies on stealing and stabbing as well.  And considering that American students as a whole ESPECIALLY in every big city, which BTW just happens to be majority minority (go figure), something like only 10% of students graduating can actually read and write and pass a basic math test. So how again are we grading? Yet in all this those same cities are ardently against school choice! Where students actually learn something. I get it that some students are slow starters (having been a teacher myself) but Like Madpick pointed out how is Mastery actually measured? _________________ Paris You can never be too prepared.

Seems to me that people who think about race all the time are more likely to be racist, since racists are the ones that are making decisions based on race.
Draw your own conclusions. _________________ Sinus211 wrote: Z66 and I still fuck on the regular. zombie66 wrote: Mikey is a Bossy Bottom..... |

Honestly I AM PERPLEXED AT HOW THEY SLEEP AT NIGHT. I don't care what color you are if you can do math or not, but they are teaching every kid its okay to show up late, miss days of work and give only 25% effort. I see it everyday in the workplace. Not going to lie there are those in my generation that are total flakes as well, but most kids out of school today can't be relied upon to show up for work and they expect a good wage.

We all know Math is racist /s
Here is a cogent analysis of this madness from a Romanian/American émigré https://www.zerohedge.com/political/the ... newsletter "In my position as a professor of mathematics at Princeton, I have witnessed the decline of universities and cultural institutions as they have embraced political ideology at the expense of rigorous scholarship. Until recently — this past summer, really — I had naively thought that the STEM disciplines would be spared from this ideological takeover." _________________ “Finding ‘common ground’ with the thinking of evil men is a fool’s errand” ~ Herschel Smith "The “A return to First Principles in a Republic is sometimes caused by simple virtues of a single man. His good example has such an influence that the good men strive to imitate him, and the wicked are ashamed to lead a life so contrary to his example. Before all else, be armed!” ~ Niccolo Machiavelli Láodòng zhèng zhūwèi zìyóu FJB |
