Incoherence posted:Pre-generated from what, exactly? Most decent teachers have enough of their own style that they're going to make up their own test for The Grapes of Wrath instead of going to Bob's Discount Test Generation Barn to pick one up. That's what I was asking. If it was possible to just make up a few tests and have a scantron machine grade them. Either way it's funny because even if it's true it's such a tiny inconvenience to that kid and the teacher is getting off on it.

Either way it's funny because even if it's true it's such a tiny inconvenience to that kid and the teacher is getting off on it. The teacher in question just made up several versions of the test (with different answer keys) to deter students from cheating off each other, and used it to try to screw with some kid for petty reasons.

Yeah, thats pretty much what scantron (I always called it skank-tron) is. Had the same thing in College too. One bad English grade probably wouldn't gently caress up someone's life. Especially if its grade 9 or ten. Guy is still a jerk though. I don't know about elsewhere, but where I'm from even the biggest universities don't give a gently caress that you failed grade 9, or 10, or 11 English/math/basket weaving/whatever. Unless you're competing for an academic scholarship with a bunch of other people they only care about grade 12.

Here's the thing about Scantron. In theory, the school buys a Scantron gizmo, with software they plug into their computer, which spits out a test. You fill in the little ovals with your #2 pencil, the scanning machine scans them, you get graded. Except that sometimes the school cheaps out, and instead of buying the scanning machine, they print out a punch sheet which masks the correct answers, The teacher holds the mask over the test to grade it; for example if the answer to the first one is B, the mask hides the B. The teacher deducts a point for every mark he sees. The obvious corollary is that a blank mark is graded as correct. To combat this, the teacher says "Remember, there's no penalty for a wrong answer, just guess if you don't know." With a real scanner, the teacher can set a penalty for wrong answers if he chooses. So, if you're taking a fill-in-the-ovals test, and there's no penalty for wrong answers, and they stress repeatedly "just guess if you don't know", leave blank any really hard questions.

Wouldn't the teacher immediately mark any blank questions incorrect before they applied the answer key? You know, so they wouldn't give a blank sheet a 100%?

Obviously a blank sheet gets thrown out. But, it's very unlikely that a teacher will take the time to scan each and every test for blanks. A lot of teachers are lazy bumblefucks, and even the 'good' teachers are overworked and underpaid. I did this several times in high school, it works.

Well how about that. Wish my CE and series registrations worked like that. Would save me tons of time. Then again those matter and high school English doesn't so I guess it makes sense.

Yeah there have been NUMEROUS studies about how children who are praised for working very hard and trying their best to understand go on to be much more successful academically and financially than children who were merely told that they were very smart or skilled. Being good at something doesn't mean you will succeed, trying to succeed is a much better indicator of success than talents.

what about if your teacher fails you and tells you it's your fault because you're stupid and talk about nerd poo poo too much, what then like, "this is good for the kid because it teaches him the value of ~~~hard work~~~" is the dumbest take I can think of, it teaches him that hard work doesn't matter because he's a worthless piece of poo poo like, it's important what you praise kids for, yes, but this is kind of the antithesis of praise soooooo loquacius fucked around with this message at 15:12 on Sep 9, 2017 |

you know what gently caress it. that kid is completely and inexorably hosed because a teacher with a sadism fetish failed him on highschool English. his self esteem will never be the same and that will lead him to being a goon lord shut in posting on r mgtow about "feeemales" while he masturbates to hentai.

You can install a Thai style bum gun into your home toilet so you don't have to time pooping around masturbating. I'm sure that can't be a healthy mental association.

My whole family thinks I'm a pedophile because of the following: I was at my cousin's house for a birthday dinner last week. She has a 9 year old daughter who will occasionally sit on peoples' laps when we're watching a movie or something. She was on mine and made a comment asking what was hard in my pants (it was my dick). Everyone got pretty creeped out and asked me to leave. I did a bad job at defending myself because I couldn't admit the real reason that I had a boner was because I could see up my cousin's skirt on the other couch because I'm pretty sure her husband would have kicked my rear end. yeah uh even if you aren't a pedophile, allowing yourself to get a boner for unrelated reasons while there is a kid sitting on your lap is the kind of thing it makes sense to get shunned by your family over
