 * The new, not yet tested, County Band Wiki!!!!! **

Cindy, art teacher at Triton, told me that by using this wiki in the sharing of ideas, curriculum, etc., we will be receiving academic credit toward our license renewal. WHOO HOO!!!

I'll get something started...

Can you guys share how you set up your grades in NCWise? Being an old guy I have been doing my grades a certain way for a very long time and it is hard for me to figure out how to make it "fit" in NCWise. Last year I did most of my grades by hand and then put them in at the end of the grading period. Bill

Hey Bill, I don't know if this is the info your looking for, but... I have my grades broken down as follows:

30% Independent Practice-I grade their obvious improvement and progress with assigned parts, (Subjective) 30% Learning Activities-Participation and effort put forth during the class, (Subjective) 40% Unit Assessments-Playing tests/Quizzes, (Objective, use a rubric)

I do some kind of test/quiz each week and give a grade for Independent practice and Learning activities each Friday, so I have about 9 grades for each 3 week period, (for progress reports) and 18 or so for each marking period.

Hope this helps. :)

Jim

This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks Jim! What about Michael and Alex. Please share. Bill
