![]() Hints for Assigning and Managing

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1. | Go through one or two transactions in class. In this class period I also CLEARLY identify which transaction set to use (Transactions List A or B) and clarify my priorities in grading. I walk them through the flowchart process for a transaction. | ||||||||||||
| 2. |
Do not answer questions via email or in the office. Instead,
use the Discussion tool in a learning platform, like
Blackboard or Desire2Learn, to answer questions. Establish
logical forums that categorize questions. Teach students how
to post in the correct Forum with meaningful subject lines.
The Forums that have worked for me are:

||||||||||||
| 3. | Use the grading sheet to simplify grading. This sheet is an example and can be adjusted for your priorities. On the due date, I have students bring the packet to class and I hand out the sheet. The student then enters the "answer" from his or her packet and puts the identified documents in order in the front of the packet. I warn them that transferring numbers incorrectly is the same as a wrong answer. | ||||||||||||
| 4. | I have a grad assistant grade the sheets against the "correct" answers I've prepared. | ||||||||||||
| 5. | Obviously, some students can't transfer from the packet to the sheet and lose points, so the instructor needs to be prepared for that problem. I don't give in on it, but I strongly warn them when they are filling out the form to be careful. |
