@Mr_Dever @evanochsds @WhatTheScheck @DudeStuffMedia I love that @Mr_Dever, the most behind the scenes baddass I’ve ever know, is getting worldwide recognition!

@jdawg19534 Thought you’d appreciate this. 😂

For the Lions fans who are also Michigan fans, remember the playoffs don't matter. Focus on that regular season game you won against your division rival 2 months ago.

Fabulous intro for today’s Army-Navy game. These kids really are the best of us.

@rickwormeli2 @eduleadership When questioned about why I use the 50% philosophy, I simply say it’s a checkers response to a chess problem.

[Lee Shively @Prof_Shively]

“We use the 100-point scale for grading because the math is easy, not because it's instructionally correct to do so” is about as good an explanation as I’ve found for why education continues to us a 100 point grading scale.

[Rick Wormeli @rickwormeli2]

Gosh, Justin, I just don't see it. Again, if we continued with the idea that every 10 points is a grade range as we do with A, B, C, and D, then we'd have to go all the way to letter L, having passed by way of grades G, H, I, J, and K. We don't have these letter grades, and no one is arguing for them. We know they are not legitimate here. So, we're not inflating a grade; we're giving the F grade the same skewing or calculation influence when still averaging on 100-point scale as the other grades, A, B, C, and D. The report of student learning, "F," is the absolute bottom of the scale, there is no further downward movement. No student brags to others, "I didn't do any work or learn anything, and I still got a 50 -yes!," for that is the same thing as saying, "I didn't do any work or learn anything, and I failed." It's not a place of pride or a sense of beating the system. We use the 100-point scale for grading because the math is easy, not because it's instructionally correct to do so, but it's imperfect and not well suited to the task, so adjustments for the improper use are needed. Note, too, that once we're talking about anything more than the normal 10 points dedicated to a grade range, such as the 60 points declared for an F, we're talking really about degrees of failure. Do we need six degrees (six ranges of 10 points each) beyond absolute failure, and the lack of recoverability mathematically that comes with that for any instructional or "teaching responsibility" reason? Instructionally, and for maturation's sake, isn't it more helpful and likely to lead to student success for us to declare to students in moments of a 50% that they have not shown evidence of learning, and we're going to investigate and go back and make sure they learn it, and when accomplished, they will get the accurate report of that higher proficiency?

Why couldn’t we have all agreed decades ago that the Tooth Fairy picks up teeth from the kitchen counter or mailbox or some other easily accessible common area rather than from under the pillow of a sleeping child who still believes in whimsical things like a Tooth Fairy?
