I have worked in my middle school setting for thirteen years now and have provided graded lessons to every student in the school during that time. I also feel that grades do provide some sense of validity, however, sone of them still have that attitude that "It's just library." Unfortunately, so do their parents. I feel it's sad that we even have to speak of something giving importance to library. One of my soon-to-be-graduating seniors came back to visit and he said that they don't know what a gift they have in that they are being given such a guided research experience. My feelings about grading are mixed, especially with the end of the second quarter approaching and having to calculate and manually post 625+ grades. Definitely something to think about before anyone rushes in to be an advocate of grading. It takes a great amount of time away from the students and the facility. Cheers! Michele M.
