NAEP Reflection

I thought this assignment was very beneficial. It taught me that it can be difficult to grade students work when the rubric is so vague. It taught me that when you create a rubric that it shouldn't be a vague and that someone else that reads it would be able to grade the students work. Looking at all the students wok my group had a lot of discussion. We disagreed upon a couple of what we thought the students deserved. This shows that the rubrics could be interpreted a couple of different ways. I thought of differently than what my groups members thought. It was hard to come to an agreement on some of the students work. I noticed that I tended to give the students higher grades. This assignment also allowed me to stretch my mind to think how I could help the students that were not understanding the questions. As a teacher it is important to be able to help the students to understand what they are not.
