Considering we have a whack of jobs with noone to do them who does the teacher expect to look at these things during an interview?&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;As well, on the thought of being judged on merit....  I am an educator by day and a waitress by nite.  In my job I am rewarded by what I do, not by my potential, and I have little room for error.  I should not bring you a blt when you ask for a club.  And there we go.  I make my money by my hard work my attitude and my skill with which I put these together.  &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;People like this are IDIOTS..... it is no wonder that the wee kids I work with think it is "not fair" that I make more tips than they do even though I have only been on the job a month.  BTW----- I can  make more doing this part time than I do full time in school..... what does THAT tidbit tell you???</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9617943/114999484047006917/comments/default/115219748236252808'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9617943/114999484047006917/comments/default/115219748236252808'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.skepticsfieldguide.net/2006/06/marking-is-pointless-and-fun-says.html?showComment=1152197460000#c115219748236252808' title=''/><author><name>Impatient Patient</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09336541213532358554</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.skepticsfieldguide.net/2006/06/marking-is-pointless-and-fun-says.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9617943.post-114999484047006917' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9617943/posts/default/114999484047006917' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-244573154'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9617943.post-115007480027957529</id><published>2006-06-12T11:13:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2006-06-12T11:13:00.000+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Thanks for the link RWP.

The number one thing I emphasise with writing criteria for rubrics is that they match the assessment instrument and the criteria easily demarcate between grade boundaries. And as you rightly point out, they must be attached to the assessment task sheet, otherwise their utility is lost.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;And yes, Kohn is a bozo.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9617943/114999484047006917/comments/default/115007480027957529'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9617943/114999484047006917/comments/default/115007480027957529'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.skepticsfieldguide.net/2006/06/marking-is-pointless-and-fun-says.html?showComment=1150074780000#c115007480027957529' title=''/><author><name>Theo</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07342708791160461777</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.skepticsfieldguide.net/2006/06/marking-is-pointless-and-fun-says.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9617943.post-114999484047006917' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9617943/posts/default/114999484047006917' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-657448792'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9617943.post-115005056746863043</id><published>2006-06-12T04:29:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2006-06-12T04:29:00.000+10:00</updated><title type='text'>What a bozo this Kohn guy is.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Here's &lt;a hre...</title><content type='html'>What a bozo this Kohn guy is.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Here's &lt;A HREF="http://rightwingnation.com/index.php/2006/03/20/1097/" REL="nofollow"&gt;my post about rubrics&lt;/A&gt;.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9617943/114999484047006917/comments/default/115005056746863043'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9617943/114999484047006917/comments/default/115005056746863043'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.skepticsfieldguide.net/2006/06/marking-is-pointless-and-fun-says.html?showComment=1150050540000#c115005056746863043' title=''/><author><name>rightwingprof</name><uri>http://rightwingnation.com</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.skepticsfieldguide.net/2006/06/marking-is-pointless-and-fun-says.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9617943.post-114999484047006917' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9617943/posts/default/114999484047006917' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-1270639728'/></entry></feed>
