Checking your final grades.

Checking your final grades.


It is easy for our teachers in the New media and Web Development program at BCIT to run through their final grade check, and make sure all spread sheet boxes are filled in, while still making a few mistakes along the way.


I recently benefited from checking through a final grade and making sure all the proper points were recorded for assignments and exams.  Even though this a bit of a mundane task, there is no way a teacher will know they are making mistakes without students finding the mistakes.


I would recommend all students should check through the breakdown of their final marks, not only to make sure they are given the grade they earned, but also to help the teachers that do make mistakes learn from their mistakes.  Both parties can benefit from this.


Who knows, maybe my omitted grade was mixed up with someone else’s and they received my marks for an assignment they didn’t complete.  Maybe that was you?  You wont know unless you check.
