Regarding #1 (karma), I’d say it helps that, again, your job isn’t tied to your content production. (And I’m sure that someone else can talk much more pointedly to the dynamic between money and karma.) Regardless, I suspect that the people who truly need to consider the monetary implications of the NC license are a small minority. Log in to Reply" );

You\'ve really given me some food for thought.<br><br>I\'ve started and restarted writing this comment 6 times ... I\'ve got to mull this over a little bit but you\'ve inspired me. I\'ve got to do some serious rethinking about how I do assessment.<br><br>One question though ... how do you come up with a numeric grade for each of your students? What weighting do you assign the concept checklist? Do you do other sorts of assessment as well such as project work or other long term assignments?

I really dig your students’ calculus blog.My gradebook balances at:70% – Tests (strictly limited to these concept quizzes — no other assessment)<br>10% – Final Exam (assigned exactly once per term)<br>20% – Classwork/Homework (everything else)For long-term projects, group work, portfolio work, I just make the assignment worth a lot of classwork or homework points. “The linear data assignment is worth ten homework assignments,” I’ll tell them.I’ve got to ask why you ask, though.If you wonder how you’ll motivate students towards classwork if so much of their grade tipped towards tests, then I share that concern. And my solution has been pretty amenable, this from a guy who shies from direct instruction whenever possible.If, however, you ask because, philosophically, you believe the long-term project-based assignments tell you what your students know, then I can’t really recommend this system, which is built ground-up on the belief that homework and classwork are less a measure of comprehension than of how hard your students work.I guess the decisive hypothetical is this: would you force a kid to retake your class who turned in 0% of the long-term projects but who aced every test?" );

With the three voices (and one person) it takes on a unique texture. I\'ve never read/heard anything like this before. Thanks for sharing it on your blog.<br><br>Cheers,<br>Darren Kuropatwa" );

I still don’t quite think it is right but I don’t have hours to play with the recording process, either. I did imagine tinkering with the voices (using effects) to make each voice a little more distinct, but never had the time.<br>I appreciate the thoughts.<br>Kevin" );
