Paul Solomon and Annette Communicating About the Behavioral Dimensions of
Grades, February, 1996
5. ATTITUDE: “A” students have a winning
attitude. They have both the determination and self-discipline necessary for
success. They show initiative. They do things they have not been told to do.
6. TALENT: “A” students demonstrate a
special talent. It may be exceptional intelligence and insight. It may be
unusual creativity, organizational skills, commitment-or some combination.
These gifts are evident to the teacher and usually to the other students as
well.
7. EFFORT: “A” students match their
effort to the demands of an assignment.
8. COMMUNICATION: “A” students place a
high priority on writing and speaking in a manner that conveys clarity and
thoughtful organization. Attention is paid to conciseness and completeness.
9. RESULTS: “A” students make high
grades on tests-usually the highest in the class. Their work is a pleasure to
grade.
