]]> Comment on Assessment in Junior Cert Science – what a shambles; what a cod! by Those books have turned me off the colour green! http://thinkforyourself.ie/2012/04/14/assessment-in-junior-cert-science-what-a-shambles-what-a-cod/#comment-1310 Thu, 24 May 2012 09:18:06 +0000 http://thinkforyourself.ie/?p=1518#comment-1310 For a lot of us, we don’t make our voice heard because of the tenuous nature of our employment. Many of us are on 1 year (or less) contracts and can’t afford to rock the boat. Another reason is that it is such an easy 35 % for the students that it has pretty much eliminated failure in Junior Cert Science, particularly at Ordinary level. Who doesn’t want their students to get a grade?
Ask a marker what they get told about marking these reports in the summer. It makes a total farce of the whole thing.
