Participation Grade Analysis

Participation Grade: I think my participation grade for Unit 1 out of 20 possible points should be 14/20.
I believe I deserve this grade because during class I engage in class discussion and I put forth my opinion. I would like to say more in class discussions, but sometimes people can be overbearing and have to talk all the time and don’t give other people an opportunity to talk and voice their opinion. When we have group discussions at the tables I engage people by starting the conversation about what we are talking about and taking the initiative and be the one to type or to write thing down when needed. So, therefore because of the lack of my participation in the class discussion I believe that I should receive a 14/20.

    English 111 Reflection

    I've posted your earned mid-term grades in English 111 on Banner and will be glad to discuss your situation with you individually sometime next week, if you'd like. These are information grades. As usual, knowledge is power: What the grade tells you gives you a chance to be pro-active in ways that might ensure your success in the course. A proper response to a mid-term grade is neither resignation nor smugness. Without my forcing the issue, the overall average at mid-term in my two sections of English 111 happens to be exactly 2.0 or "C," a reasonable outcome for a first-semester college course, one that includes several failures by students who simply quit coming to class and submitting the assigned writing projects.…
