[etni] What Judy said

**** ETNI on the web http://www.etni.org.il   http://www.etni.org   ****

I read an e-mail sent by Judy yesterday where she specifically wrote that 
pupils must bring their portfolio with them into the oral test.  
Unfortunately, I deleted the message.  This contradicts what a few people 
have written about what Judy said, but her last word seems to have been 
"bring the projects in".

    I agree that any responsible, self-respecting teacher won't fake a 
pupil's project theme, if the pupil never handed in a project.  I also think 
that there exists a real possibility that the written project might 
influence a tester's grade, even a little.  Therefore, I agree with those 
who feel kids shouldn't have to bring in their projects, despite the fact 
that I feel empathy with teachers who feel there should be a correlation 
between the effort a pupil put into the projects, and the oral grade he/she 
will get for it.  However, as long as the Ministry has decided that there 
will be no correlation, it should also ensure that the written work won't 
affect the oral grade.  Nonetheless, Judy did write that the projects must 
accompany the pupil to the oral test.
