Editor's Notes
- bring things forward from last assessment - score for each
- but my thing is just science... no! your new thing is teaching science and the unwritten curriculum
- If it harms self-esteem, the student doesn’t see the feedback as acheival
- first year teachers - highly recommend using someone’s else plan - better support & focus on other things
- Piling up. Not fair to you, not fair to students. They deserve timely feedback!
