ruru, mother mac goes into a place where they are supposed to take care of her and all her needs, to take the onus off our shoulders. it means we are not to have any contact with her for the time she is there. it's so we can recharge our batteries, rest, and kick back a bit
1:23 am

Never mind Rose...sounds like she needed a bit of ticking off. And in years to come, it will be referred to a that little episode that you had whilst you were sick.

Peri, Ata was here earlier with sad news. She said Babble player Ankhorite had passed away. I told Ata you had been thinking about her recently. It made her smile. : )

11:30 am
stidmama

hey dose, probably -- hold on
11:30 am
doseffing

... a school that would have a women's lacrosse team?
11:31 am
stidmama

looks like several -- I have never been to colorado so probably not the best person to ask.
11:31 am
Deeha

There one at Boulder I think??
11:31 am
stidmama

why ?
11:31 am
stidmama

boulder isn't denver...
11:32 am
stidmama

there. finally down to 20 and NBT
11:32 am
doseffing

... I'm just finishing teaching remedial math at summer school ... i've got a kid who came up to me at the end of day yesterday and said she needed an 80% in Grade 11 (junior year) University stream math to get a scholarship and was there anything she could do to get her mark up
11:33 am
doseffing

... I can sprinkle magic pixie dust on anything ... but raising a 55 to an 80 is getting close to morally reprehensible ...
11:33 am
doseffing

... but ending a kid's chances at getting ahead is also not pleasant ...
11:33 am
stidmama

oh -- yes, that is really rough.
11:33 am
doseffing

... need to figure out just how much i can do
11:34 am
stidmama

here is a website that might help you find what you are looking for... there are several college-level divisions
11:34 am
stidmama

http://www.laxpower.com/common/college
_women.php
11:34 am
stidmama

are you giving grades based on the mean of all scores earned, or on the progress the student made in the session?
11:35 am
stidmama

In other words, did she make progress and learn what you intended to teach even if she didn't do well at first?
11:35 am
doseffing

... As far as being a rigourous academic school ... how far along the continuum from Priceton School of Advanced Sciences to Fred's Pizza and School of Hair Design is are we
11:35 am
stidmama

I don't know what the policies are for grading up where you are
11:36 am
doseffing

... Standard practice is mean of scores given ... ... pixie dust includes ... if you're exam score is better (i.e. if you can demonstrate that you've learned something) then I can make everything else disappear
11:36 am
doseffing

... and I can round up ... and up ... and up
11:37 am
stidmama

I struggle with thinking about grading personal progress vs. reflecting where a student is relative to the goals for that session.
11:37 am
doseffing

you're ... ? ... your exam
11:37 am
stidmama

What sort of effort has the student made? Do you think there is evidence that the student can perform at a low-B level in that math?
11:38 am
stidmama

LOL -- so what is her most recent exam score? Or was that the 55 you gave?
11:38 am
doseffing

... my experience is there is no "objective" method of giving a meaningful grade ... yes ... I'll judge effort ... and she's reaching panic mode ... and now effort is skyrocketing
11:39 am
stidmama

And has the student considered trying for a scholarship at a community college (where there is likely to be more support for learning in the first two years anyway) instead of the big university?
11:39 am
stidmama

how much time is left for the session?
11:39 am
doseffing

... if she had put in as much effort in the first half as she put in the last two days she wouldn' have a problem ... my task is to figure out if she has learned that
11:39 am
doseffing

... Monday .. Tuesday ... Wednesday
11:39 am
stidmama

yep. I really understand that!
11:40 am
doseffing

.... oh I know what I can do
11:40 am
doseffing

... these are mostly pretty helpless students ... I can say look at exaple 1 and 5 and 8 ... the exam questions are just like that
11:40 am
stidmama

for example, this community college has a good reputation... http://www.aacc.edu/
11:41 am
doseffing

... If she was going to a community college ... she'd stay up here
11:41 am
stidmama

wow... sounds like she needs a study-skills course more than a math class if she is at that level! How is her reading comprehension in general? There may be more going on than just having missed basic math principles.
11:42 am
stidmama

But if she goes to a 4-year in the States (with or without a scholarship) she is going to really struggle. Particularly at a big school like Denver.
11:42 am
doseffing

... We don't have athletic scholarships in Canada ... as far as I recall ... lot's of phys ed and kinesiology students from here especially the hockey players get the university by being scouted by US schools
11:42 am
doseffing

... yeah she desperately needs to learn how to learn ...
11:43 am
doseffing

... that's what I was trying to teach even more than the math but I don't believe I was particularly successful ...
11:43 am
stidmama

Then the best thing might be to accurately reflect her actual performance, so that she gets the help she needs. She'll hate it, of course, but promoting students who really aren't ready for the next step doesn't seem kind to me.
11:44 am
doseffing

... yeah ...
11:44 am
stidmama

Has she already graduated from high school?
11:44 am
doseffing

... i'm just trying to figure out how i tell mommy and daddy that the money they spent on a tutor has gone down the drain ...
11:44 am
doseffing

... I don't think so ...
11:45 am
doseffing

... she is in what you call Junior year ...
11:45 am
doseffing

... but she has been offered a provisional scholarship based on getting through next year at a particular level
11:46 am
stidmama

Then she would have another chance to learn what she needs to know. It is NOT too late for her to get the help she needs, and the money on the tutor isn't wasted (she DID learn some things, right?) -- just she needs still more assistance. Seems that the parents should be talking to the school and asking for evaluation for additional support.
11:46 am
doseffing

... Grade 11 math is a mandatory requirement for graduation ... ... so she must show it on her transcript ... and it's mark is presently below the standard she needs
11:46 am
stidmama

Provisional is nice -- do ALL classes have to be B or above, or just the average of all classes (for the scholarship)
11:46 am
doseffing

... her problem is "I'll work two days a month rather than every day"
11:47 am
stidmama

That's okay, she can retake grade 11 math, and will do better the next time.
11:47 am
stidmama

Time management and organization skill issues can suggest learning disabilities/ADD
11:47 am
stidmama

They can also just indicate immaturity
11:47 am
doseffing

... I think she is stuck with something like everything above B- ... she has the credit ... but I'll bet C- is above the level she obtained during the year
11:48 am
stidmama

All of which can be mitigated through additional support
11:48 am
doseffing

... she just has never had anything really count before
11:48 am
doseffing

... and she has now bumped into something that realy matters for the first time
11:49 am
doseffing

... my hope is she is learning that continual effort is required for the important stuff ... not just extreme burst every now and then
11:49 am
stidmama

I would still check on whether there is something else holding her back; my son denied he had any issues at all (and still denies) until he started to fail in school. And now that he is an adult, he is having to face up to his responsibility to seek help with organization, learning and other skill deficits.

... I'll leave that to her parents ... ... and to her regular school ... ... I've just got her for a two week remedial programme ... and she has done enough to get by ... ... but that's all she has done in regular school before so she's got a mark in the 50's when she needs 75-80

My younger son met that wall this past year as a sophomore -- I don't think he will put an entire semester's work off until the last three weeks again!
11:52 am

Just getting by is going to be an insufficient strategy for college.
11:52 am
doseffing

... yup ... that's my speech for Monday's end of class
11:53 am
stidmama

Wow. It's a "sticky wicket" as my friend/neighbor used to say to me.
11:53 am
stidmama

I will have to make speeches like that someday... when I get a classroom of my own!
11:55 am
doseffing

... it's even better when you notice that someone has listened and changed their behaviour ... ... it gets to be frustrating when you say the same thing day after day
11:55 am
stidmama

yes -- and sometimes they don't change then, but they do later (I know this from tutoring -- sometimes it takes a while for it to stick)
11:55 am
stidmama

yes, too much like parenting...
11:57 am
doseffing

... hey ... I get to laugh this summer ... the kid is working at some day school type camp situation and she's having to deal with younger kids 6-13 for the whole day ... ... and I'm just laughing and laughing at the complaints about the idiot kids
11:57 am
stidmama

*grin* they just walk into those things, don't they?
11:57 am
doseffing

... hee hee hee
11:58 am
doseffing

... and she's having to deal with idiot adults too ... the boss and the parents ... ... ... I just nod and frown sincerely
11:59 am
stidmama

okay, down to 17. I have a few things to do around the house (have to work inside mostly) -- like laundry and sorting through boxes. I want to make a visible dent in just one corner of the living room.
12:00 pm
stidmama

oh yes! I remember being at that stage, actually, when I was certain that adults were just too stupid and they were always in my way.
12:00 pm

Mitt Romney is not popular over here. What a pillock. I have a good anglo saxon ex-pression for him that I am too polite to say except the second word is 'off'!!

12:04 pm

Hmm...I must have missed something.
12:04 pm
doseffing

... perhaps it's like JFK in Warsaw ... his translator ... the one who writes the speeches in English for a foreign audience doesn't really know the language
12:05 pm
doseffing

(JFK said something in Polish which his translator thought meant one thing but turned out to be a really gross insult)
12:05 pm

he's in England Dose.
12:05 pm
doseffing

yeah I know
12:05 pm

12:06 pm

... it's a different language from English
12:06 pm

Um, okay.
12:06 pm
hego

Well, not that different.
12:07 pm

I have no problem at all communicating in England.
12:07 pm
hego

Unless we talk about fried potatos
12:08 pm
doseffing

... while I agree that what he said was thoroughly insensitive and shouldn't have been said ... he likely was thinking that he was speaking to one group ... and found out he was speaking to everyone ... and they were all going to be insulted in the exteme
12:08 pm
Vicuna

(Just passing through and can't help pointing out that Romney's not exactly sensitive in American English, either. Okay, gone again, now...)

... there was one guest who had lived through the civil was appearing in an episode about life after the war ... ... it was weird ...

12:30 pm

they wrote that on a chart?
12:31 pm
hego

No one can predict that Sue.
12:31 pm
uusue2

In his doctor's notes, apparently
12:31 pm
doseffing

... My guess is he knows ... he doesn't need the chart ... ... my uncle did ... my dad did ... he knows ... he's just not telling you ... and he won't
12:31 pm

and usually the best practitioners refuse to guess!
12:32 pm

You're right Dose, you can't keep that from patients.

Minveryork

For a small grid, it was not too ha 4/6 to do. I'm saving my last word so he 4/5 is a story of clues for to 5/16 for you to re 4/5. Hubby thinks I should get an aw 5/20 for being the sloppiest hoarder.He says that I have things in every inch of the office. My husband wishes that I would go through my desk and dresser dr 6/33s and throw out all my junk. He thinks the office is a ha6/39 because of the mess on the floor. He has been trying to pu 4/6 me to get rid of some things. Hubby thinks that it would be su4/6r cool if I got rid of some things.If I do he will give me a re6/33. If it we4/8 up to husband he would rent a dumpster and throw everything out. However, I will not let my husband sw4/10 me to get rid of things I want to keep. Dr 4/5! My fe4/7 wants to take the computer aw 4/10 from me.I will go ah5/14 and let him use laptop. I have a he4/6ache anyway and need to go lie down.BBL

OK, I may be a spoil sport, but I'm not really fan of these opening ceremonies. at all.

Opening ceremonies may not be the best but i am sitting in a quiet house with a glass of wine and the breeze coming in the back door...ahhh, bliss.

doing well. Had a lazy day watching Olympics and ironing. How are you feeling today

8:31 pm
Minveryork

I did not have a lazy day, but I wish I did.I went on field trip with students to a local museum.Then I came home worked on a powerpoint. I have to work on it all weekend.
8:32 pm
Minveryork

fa 5/20 word sounds like what Tinker Bell is Marc Freeman
8:32 pm
Bugsaw

so sorry Min. I forgot you don't get the summer off.
8:32 pm
Minveryork

Hi Marc Freeman! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
8:32 pm
uusue2

ah, yes, powerpoints - have made many dozens in my day...
8:32 pm
Bugsaw

will you be paid for the powerpoint presentation tho? that is always good
8:33 pm
Minveryork

That is by choice so no need to be sorry. Always do summer school no matter what.I don't really like it this year though
8:33 pm
uusue2

ok, I am off to check something out, may be back later! otherwise see you all tomorrow!
8:33 pm
MollyL

Ugh Min, power point is not my favorite. Good luck with your presentation.
8:34 pm
Minveryork

Spending HOURS working on it, but not getting paid for it.I really have never done one before, so it's taking me longer,=
8:34 pm
Bugsaw

I am learning how to use what they think will replace powerpoint. Called Prezzi
8:34 pm
Minveryork

Hello MollyL! How are you doing? Welcome to the chat log.
8:34 pm
Minveryork

Thanks MollyL
8:35 pm
Bugsaw

I am sure it will go well Min
8:35 pm
Bugsaw

yeah
8:36 pm
Minveryork

PowerPoint is pretty simple, but it is very time consuming.I think it is tedious trying to get pictures in the right format.
8:36 pm
MollyL

Prezzi is somewhat better than Power Point. I just find them both very dry ways of presenting information.
8:36 pm
MollyL

I'm okay Min. How are you doing these days?
8:37 pm
Minveryork

My PowerPoint is going to be dry and boring since I do not know how to do the fancy word movements in PowerPoint.
8:37 pm
Bugsaw

but better than straight lecture don't you think Molly? What wud you prefer if you were in the audience?
8:38 pm
Bugsaw

depends on your audience Minveryork. Older audiences are not keen on lots of motion and movement on screen. We don't find obvious transitions boring. Don't over think this!
8:38 pm
Minveryork

Actually, I was supposed to do it with the students, but did not have time w/all the other requirements they had of us
8:39 pm
Minveryork

The summer program I taught this summer was all for show
8:39 pm
Minveryork

There was no real teaching going on and kids did not learn
8:39 pm
MollyL

I always prefer a straight lecture. Power Point has become as overdone as the old overhead presentations.
8:40 pm
MollyL

That's too bad Min. Must be frustrating for you as an educator.
8:40 pm
Bugsaw

I use the power point as my notes to remember what was said.
8:41 pm
Minveryork

Yes,very frustrating.The district that I work in is so asinine.
8:41 pm
Bugsaw

Thank Molly. I had to give a straight lecture once and when people said they liked it, I thot they were kidding
8:42 pm
Minveryork

I hope this is my one and only PowerPoint I ever have to do
8:43 pm
Bugsaw

Don't worry Min. People don't expect excellence, especially for your first one
8:43 pm
Good Enough

ive never done pp. guess i wont learn now since bugs says something new is coming soon
8:44 pm
Minveryork

Thanks Bugsaw, but not everybody knows that it is my first
8:45 pm
Bugsaw

something new is ALWAYS coming in this day and age. I gave up and retired LOL
8:45 pm
Minveryork

Administrators also wanted us to do photostory, but I never did that one before too. Too bad my co-teachers could not step it up to help out. I basically did almost everything this summer
8:46 pm
Good Enough

always new and im always a bit behind
8:46 pm
MollyL

I think a straight lecture, done well, beats anything with visual aids.
8:46 pm
Bugsaw

I am sorry Min. It is always harder when you are supposed to be working as a group and others are not willing to step up.
8:46 pm
MollyL

That
8:47 pm
MollyL

That is true. So many people coast on the hard work of others.
8:47 pm
MollyL

GE, what a nice picture in your icon.
8:47 pm
Bugsaw

the worst are the ones who want to do a totally different topic that was not assigned.
8:49 pm
Good Enough

thanks! me and DH in Olympic National Park last summer
8:50 pm
Minveryork

So this is how asinine the district is. They expected us to do like a hundred and one million things,but they gave us hardly any supplies. Also wanted us to emphasize the use of technology, but the only available printer was in the office which the secretaries needed. They provided 10 lap tops, but 4 of them were broken. The classrooms had only 1 working computer.I used so much of my own ink and paper because we had to print pictures of what the students did this summer. Again, I HATE my district!
8:50 pm
redturtlehead

25 left, is there a list?
8:51 pm
MollyL

Damn Min, that's pretty bad.
8:51 pm
Minveryork

Okay,I am done venting about my job. Thanks for listening
8:51 pm
MollyL

Lickety is up
8:51 pm
Minveryork

Lickety's list is up and running redturtlehead. I listed also.
8:52 pm
redturtlehead

Ok I am going to be up watching the parade of nations. They could have done this earlier and avoided all that singing and dancing...
8:52 pm
MollyL

GE, you two are a cute couple. : )
8:53 pm
Minveryork

I really should be thankful to have a job with the economy the way it is.Speaking of which,husband FINALLY got a job
8:53 pm
Bugsaw

the parade is the best part red. It takes forever to get to the lighting of the torch and, while it was impressive, I am not sure it was that great
8:54 pm
Bugsaw

ooh, husband having a job shud make some choices easier!good news
8:54 pm
MollyL

Good news Min! I know you have been anxious about that. I hope it goes well for him.
8:56 pm
Minveryork

Well, I shouldn't speak too soon. He does not start job for another 2 weeks & anything can happen in those 2 weeks.
8:57 pm
Minveryork

Then he has to get through their training program for him to keep the job. So who knows! We'll have to wait and see
8:58 pm
Minveryork

I feel like I ahve done nothing but talk about myself which is really selfish of me.I usually do not like to talk about me
8:59 pm
redturtlehead

I should not really complain, but really that opening thing was pretty disjointed.
8:59 pm
Bugsaw

sometimes you need to lean on us since you are such an important part of Babblers feeling good too
8:59 pm
Minveryork

Since nobody is asking for clues, I am going to hit the sack.
9:00 pm
Minveryork

Goodnite to my fellow babblers!Thanks for listening to me.
9:00 pm
Bugsaw

I thot so so red. Celebrating a hospital was kind of odd and the modern life thing was just weird
9:01 pm

haad
9:01 pm
Bugsaw

oops
9:01 pm
redturtlehead

and I was so quick to type it in!
9:02 pm
redturtlehead

I did not get it. the olympic ceremonies, I always forget though, they never seem to focus on sport...
9:03 pm
MollyL

Night Min, sleep well.
9:03 pm
redturtlehead

he 4, 9?
9:04 pm
Bugsaw

the openings are supposed to be about the host country.
9:04 pm
Bugsaw

means to chop wood red
9:05 pm
redturtlehead

Oh bugger, I thought I had typed that one in.
9:05 pm
redturtlehead

I know they are but at least they could be about The Isles sports...
9:06 pm
Bugsaw

Much beter plan red!
9:07 pm
redturtlehead

I did like the part with the symphony and th comedian...
9:09 pm
Bugsaw

me too. I think that was the most entertaining. I also wondered how they made sparks rain down from the rings. They cudn't have been real or the firemarshalls wud be having heart attacks. The queen was a surprise
9:15 pm
redturtlehead

I also liked to see the Chaos deaf and hearing kids choir...
9:16 pm
redturtlehead

the rings were neat. It was just the trying to drag us through all decades...

ChampFit

Wait! Must get my flag and plant it on the hill! Where is that stupid flag....

9:22 pm

Don't know why I'm watching. Kinda like a train wreck...can't look away.

Are there Olympic events for boorish and posturing? I think I know someone who should compete. : D

Yes, you being polite. And me being...not so much.

I know.. I always try to not be offensive..:D
9:49 pm
MollyL

A gentleman to the core.
9:50 pm
rururocks

I don't remember which Olympics it was.. but the American athletes were just horrible.. taunting, rude, I was saddened to be an American. I think this is an event that should bring countries together and not the other way around
9:52 pm
MollyL

I don't remember that, but I agree. These events are about camaraderie.
9:59 pm
Good Enough

i think my bottle of wine is going to run out before this ceremony is over. zzzzzz
10:02 pm

That's why I don't watch GE. I find them a bit on the boring side.

i'm sure you don't know this guy, buddy franklin, he's a football player(aussie rules). on his twitter page he has posted a photo of......DEACON!!!!!!!

Good, hon. Keep it up....just make sure you have enough rest time.
11:13 pm

I got some laundry done today, and that felt good. But the washing machine is struggling, so each load takes at least three times longer than it used to.

stiddy, he is my first grandchild, now 4 years old. reason i changed from rmcc to grannyrose
11:14 pm

I am being as reasonable as I can -- I didn't let myself work in the yard today for example, because Grant was away all day -- I need backup in case my hip does its thing when I am outside.
11:15 pm
stidmama

OOH! that is quite a really cool thing, then, grannyrose! How did mr franklin get your grandson's pic?
11:15 pm
