IB Grading
I forgot about how much the IB IA grading system bugged me. Basically, the teacher grades your paper, sends the scores into IB, and IB requests to see six papers. They are randomly selected and if your teacher grades one of those teachers bad, the entire class can be effected, even if they never see your paper. I'm not doing a very good job of explaining it, but they can basically assign a score lower than what the teacher gave you based on somebody else's paper. Not very likable to me.
What are your thoughts on this? Obviously IB can't grade every paper submitted... that would take too long. But your score being determined partially by other students' scores? No thanks.
I am glad that I don't have to do that because that would piss me off something fierce. It seems like all IB wants to do is promote deforestation and negative attitudes. I would be doing a lot of letter writing to IB because that idea should be stoned like the adulteresses of yore were, not that I would condone such an activity, but I'm just saying. I definitely agree that that is one poorly done system.
