My algebra professor used this method... though every week, you would have someone asking what their letter grade was. Sad...

Yeah... those are the people who want structure, order, set scores... none of this exp business in games like RPGs... MASS EFFECT STYLE OF EDUCATION WOULD BE EPIC.

It had gotten so bad, that he put the total we should have on the board every week and said add up what you have on your returned works and divide by that total. I never had a problem with it, except when the professor labeled me one of the go to guys. When he was busy with another student... I liked being alone at my table... crying It was silent...

Anyway... I believe learning shouldn't really be one style... yes the gaming one is good for some with hardcore imaginations, and that exploring nature, while others want structure and all that... AND THEN you have to take into consideration the VARK learning styles as well... So really... you know what the governments of the free countries should do? Make the form SUPER long... yes... sadly... But it would have EVERYTHING... Tick boxes for learning style, how you like learning, the type of grading you would like... If that was done... Then more schools would be needed because they were overrun with kids because they suddenly have all the kids that never went to school, actually going to school.

Had to take the test and I am a read and writer... lol The problem is, not many people would choose a style they aren't familiar with. Many... highschools and under are abcdf grading systems, or pass fail...

I learn quickly and once I do learn it, it is stuck forever.... foooorrrreeeeevvvvvveeeeeerrrrr.... So, I also agree with you. I kind of wish, the schools would teach in all formats, or styles, that way everyone learns.
