We have to turn midterm grades into the Registrar's office for first-year students and students that are on academic probation. And then, we have to turn in grades for everyone at the end of each term. Since I solo teach one of the largest classes of first-years in the university, plus other normal classes, that's a whole lot of grade turning in.
The grades must be turned in on a certain deadline, to which I aspire every time, and fail to reach quite regularly.
If you include midterm grades since I've been here...
3 years * 2 semesters * 2 half semesters
+
1 midterm
= 13 grade turn-ins
* approx 40 students (averaging small and large classes)
=
520 individual grades entered.
Well, I have been right on time for about %15 of those.
= 442 late grades
*sigh*
I strive for better. Let's see if I can continue to improve.
I am a professor at a primarily undergraduate institution. My spouse is a research professor and works two hours' drive away. This blog is primarily about life at a PUI, but also about our family trying to make the most of an uncomfortable lifestyle.
