The Pearson rep did a presentation and told us that schoolwork would be done on the computers, communications would be done on the computers, tests would be taken on the computers, grading would be done by the computers....yadda, yadda, yadda. Teachers could have more time to teach and work one on one because they wouldn't have to grade all those papers - the program our district chose would do all that for them. The teachers could get instant feedback from a quiz and see if the majority of students got a certain question wrong they could immediately go back and reteach that concept. We were very clearly told this Pearson system would allow students that needed more help to get that help and the students that get it the first time could move on and would absolutely not be held back.
:rofl:
Oh, that's REALLY funny, given what I know of Pearson's digital delivery model.
