@NolanFossum 💔 struggling with this and my kids this year. Some of their friends have pressure to get “all perfect grades” so they don’t want to work on group projects with my daughter who struggles with handwriting and will “mess up the project”. This is elementary school.
@NolanFossum Are there any that are more positive?
@NolanFossum What’s the context here - what is the student responding to? Is this a survey given by the child’s teacher, or a researcher?
@NolanFossum Nolan 😩😩😩😩 Literally grades tell us if we are good or bad, rewarded or in trouble?! I can’t
@NolanFossum That student has insight onto the subject of this entire book—a classic: Schooling In Capitalist America: Educational Reform And The Contradictions Of Economic Life by Samuel Bowles and the late Herbert Gintis abebooks.com/book-search/is…
