Six-Week Profiles: Q3B+Q3C
A few days ago, we overhauled your current unit of study:
We also updated the daily calendar, which now reflects these changes. You can track your reading, plan your writing, and even set your daily goals in advance.
The renewed focus on structured, in-class work gives us an opportunity to slow down and walk you through new material, like the current SOAPSTONE analysis. It is also a chance to revisit your current progress in terms of GAP scores.
What we’ve decided to do is to eliminate the GAP score for Q3B. We will fold those three weeks’ worth of evidence into the profile-based assessment of the next three weeks, ending with another GAP report on April 5.
This means that you will be able to demonstrate growth, if you struggled recently, and earn a much higher profile score. You will be able to demonstrate more amenability and self-awareness. It’s a chance to look at six weeks worth of progress, not just three, which is exactly what some of you need. (Students already doing well should just keep on keeping on.)
