FW: Handing out A's like candy

[Hatcher, Joe]

Hi Don and others,
        I think an unorthodox approach might work.  For example, one could
suggest that, if this colleague's grades do not show improvement year after
year, one interpretation is that they aren't really getting any better as a
teacher.  Naturally, there are many factors involved in grades, but I would
suggest that the quality of teaching should be to some degree correlated
with the amount of learning people are doing; the absence of this
relationship is what prompted Jeff's initial message, I think.
