For the most part I have the same initial comments on almost all papers. Please read the rubric....i know they can be vague but i think this may help. I am always free for questions!
If you did gas prices:
Overall these are much better than anticipated. I know you all are finding your way and that this paper guidance may have been vague...that's part of the point to allow you room to be creative, to think, and to apply what we are discussing.
If you did gas prices:
- Most of you should have a better idea after we cover Supply and Demand the next couple lessons because it should give a model to explain what you are intuitively thinking
- I'm interested in how the price change would affect YOU...not the world
- Why might gas prices have changed in the first place? Could they have changed for multiple reasons? would those different types of changes have different effects?
- When the price changes how does it affect the 7 principles especially incentives, cost-benefit, equilibrium, and efficiency? What are the primary and secondary effects that relate to YOU and might those effects have both costs and benefits.
- Do not focus on describing the problem as YOU see it. Also, do not describe or discuss teachers who don't seem to care...we are presuming that teachers care.
- What are the incentives to a teacher? to a student? how might these affect the classroom?
- Surely, many teachers know HW and other graded events can be painful and even fail to truly measure learning... why dont they change them?
- How does a teacher know if they are actually acheiving learning in the classroom.
Overall these are much better than anticipated. I know you all are finding your way and that this paper guidance may have been vague...that's part of the point to allow you room to be creative, to think, and to apply what we are discussing.
