While looking over these "numbers" it is important to note several factors:
- An overview of the activity with firm scaffolding was done.
- Definitions of terms {although subjective} were given, students who needed a "refresher" on a term did ask.
- Students were to rate themselves from 1-10 on how they feel as a whole, NOT how they feel just in my class. I told several students to rate themselves in general and don't really use our class as much of a factor.
- Percentages may not add up to a perfect 100%. When compiling the data... I didn't calculate to the nearest decimal. Also...
- Unfortunately, despite a strong scaffold and frequent reminders, some students did not listen to/follow directions. For example, I had one student who rated themselves at "200" several times... because it is anonymous, I have no idea who did that or what that "200 meant." I also had a student write "3 to 5" a few times in addition to a few "0's" even though zero was not an option.
- Some students either intentionally or unintentionally skipped a few.
- Typing these numbers out as they are instead of embedding them in a table was done due to my lack of patience with technology. :-)
