A comment on Conversation: Should public schools in the United States eliminate the traditional A to F grading scale? And if so, what assessment do we replace it with?
I personally believe that the only way that education would work for the best interest of the students is through an upheavel in the whole system of teaching not just the "almighty" grade as you put it but even the way teachers taught their class letting the children choose the classes they wish to attend and the lessons they wish to learn.
The way I see it is that the only way that children can really learn is by being taught how to be critical thinkers at a young age if this sense of questioning everything and holding no assumptions about preconceived ideas then we would not have the problems we do now what with gun and knife crime so (supposdely) prevalent and a population of youths so disenchanted with the current way things are turning out no wonder school is a nasty place to be no wonder they all just wish to escape I know i did.
Instead letting them grow by nourishing their minds, making school a adventure a fun place to be if teachers showed experiments let their imaginations run free then the generations of thinkers that came before could have their dreams accomplished a free land independant of rules , laws and regulations a land where are all equal. =)
