I am generally very pleased with the results of the midterm. There were many A's in the class and those who got B's were in striking distance of getting an A. Hmmmmmm....I wonder if my midterm was too easy and I may have to make my final exam more difficult?
I did notice that some students did not meet the 1-2 page requirement. This is necessary to ensure that significant thought and analysis went into your answer. I will assess a tough penalty for not meeting this requirement in the final!
I continue to be appalled by the number of grammatical/spelling errors in the submissions. I would think that the word processor would catch these errors and the students would edit them. I hope that this will not occur in future submission... including postings.
I noticed no one got a perfect score in the midterm...I have HIGH expectations from my students (unlike Calvin)! Check out this link.

Prof Les,
ReplyDeleteNooooooooooooo!, don't make your final exam any harder. I think you did a good job of teaching us and that reflected in the good responses and grades you got back. Those questions were actually made us think. The fact that you didn't allow any reason too limited us to only what we learnt.
Thanks,
Joseph
