  1. 3P System Better, Faster, More Meaningful Grades

  2. What are the 3Ps? • Participation – weighted at 30% • Progress – weighted at 20% • Performance –weighted at 50% • That’s it – all assignments will fall into one (and sometimes more than one) of these categories

  3. Why? • How do you know what to do on a job? • Do you get grades and/or report cards? • Self-assessment • The boss • Co-workers • Johnny’s story

  4. Holistic basis • Holistic – understanding that parts make up the whole; looking at it all together • We judge others based on holistic basis all the time • Which way of evaluation would be the most fair for Johnny: average points or the 3Ps?

  5. Evaluation • HONESTY is paramount • Any dishonesty of any kind (cheating, plagiarism, copying, or any other kind of dishonest behavior) will result in an automatic failure for that unit! • You will keep a portfolio of work throughout the semester – keep everything! • You and I both evaluate your portfolio • Your evaluation is worth 50% of your overall grade • You will write an actual evaluation of your work on an individual basis and an overall evaluation at the end of the semester (performance and progress). • You will also evaluate your participation weekly.

  6. Participation – What is it and how is it graded? • Criteria: • Follow directions the first time they are given • Come to class every day; don’t be late • Share regularly. Give good feedback. Ask good questions • Take ownership of your results; be accountable; don’t blame. • Ask for help when you need it; use the advice I give you! • You will evaluate your performance on these criteria each Friday after the vocabulary quiz. I will also evaluate on a weekly basis.

  7. Progress – Do you know more at the end of the semester than you do now? • Participation: Do you know how to interact with others and the teacher than you did at the start of the semester? • Performance: How do you do on large and small tasks? Can you handle more tasks more efficiently? • Setting and Achieving Specific Goals: There will be a class goal and 2-3 personal goals for everyone. Did you make your personal and class goals?

  8. Performance – Standards, tests and self- assessment • Not an average over the semester • Evaluation of an entire collection • You will write a reflection on your assessment • Read some books, write about every 2 weeks (smaller writing more often) • Also includes unit tests, notebook checks

  9. Grades – UH OH… or What can I expect? • A means “Above and beyond” • B means “Basically fine” • C means “Could’ve done better” • D means “Didn’t try” • F means “ Forget about it” or “excuses, excuses, excuses” • In the real world most employees are “B” employees
