Describe the advantages and disadvantages of a percentage system compared to a point system for assigning grades
What will be an ideal response?
A percentage system provides a more accurate measure of student performance, but it has the disadvantage of being harder for parents and students to understand. A percentage system can make all assessments equal in weight, so it might not provide an accurate measure of achievement, but it is easy to understand. Either system can be effective if teachers assess frequently and thoroughly.
