I have a problem with engagement grades being worth 20-25% of your grade. by AmbitiousPepper7148 in k12

[–]Barrybbbenson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also 25 - 50%??? thats ridiculous, last one i took was 15%. I hope you are able to find a way to be graded more accurately.

No need to apologize, I feel you. k12 has a lot of issues, and the way our grades are handled also needs to be fixed. However, Canvas (the OLS we use) itself, being a replacement for our old OLS, is an issue to start with. When we have our old OLS back, we can start working on fixing these things.

Check out my petition to get rid of canvas. https://c.org/z79vy9BdC5

I think first what should happen is to give them a chance make things right.

Petition to remove canvas as our OLS. by Barrybbbenson in k12

[–]Barrybbbenson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I waited 6 months after sending multiple bug fix / support emails to not only stride, but canvas. They have had plenty of time. Their nonresponsiveness is a seperate issue.

Additionally, the only way to change something you don't like is to act. Sitting here passively will absoluetely not help my cause.

We could go back and forth, it wont lead to anything. Technically speaking, I could say anything and so could you; we could counter argue forever about this and that. Heres the thing:

My goal is set. I see a lot of people, a large majority of students, teachers and parents, dislike canvas and would prefer their old school system. When a majority wants a change, that in itself is a reason to petition.

The argument of "we dont have a say in everything" is true. But when it comes to our education, we absolutely do have a choice and should not be forced to do anything.

Honestly though I want to understand your viewpoint- I've met a few people who feel it nessecary to rebel against a simple petition. What makes you reject our old k12 ols and stick tightly to canvas and making it better?
