How are they punished?
At first, they are not.
The person’s who got the most questions correct, most probably get’s a A,
If one of the popular ‘curve’ grading was used, would probably get a A plus.
Making him/her the highest scoring person on that test.
So, in a way, that person is not punished for their work/study.
That time.
And that describes the two extremes of the spectrum.
The highest gets a A, the lowest get’s a F.
What about those lower grading students, who would have failed,
they now get getting passing grades, for doing NO work.
The working hard person, not just the Top person,
sees, ‘no work’, rewarded, so why ‘work’, why not party ?
So yea, it would not, directly, ‘punish’, the highest grade person.
It punishes the hardest working/smartest,
for the benefit of the lazy/ignorant.
Just like,
’Teaching The Test’, benefits the teacher, school, state.
Or the most wonderful, Pass/Fail, system.
Socialism, where the ‘almost good enough’, will receive rewards.
(Well, until the other person, stops working for them)Now, to the original question:
... when asked,
"Would you would be willing to give some of your higher than B grades, to bolster up someones D grades.?"...They say they want to keep their grade, because They worked hard to get them...
Is it possible that any UL FDS GBS could answer that,
without Spinning, Deflecting, and name calling ?
Or is it just, 'good enough', to Spin, Deflect, and name call ?
