Timely recommendation; the change to how high school courses are treated in the
intervention reports are significant for my institution. Presently, my school is
dealing with a very similar dilemma; one of our courses has three components; a
student gets an A in the geometry component; a C grade in the Algebra
component, and an F grade in the Arithmetic component. Final grade will reflect a
passing grade of C. When the student goes to another class that requires them
to function at a c level or above arithmetically, the student is inept. The other
teacher asks the question; didnt you pass the prerequisite math course? How are
you not able to perform these simple calculation? Well, if the components were
reported separately the other teacher would observe that the student is illiterate in
Arithmetic. So, the recommendation to report the components separately, may be
the break through my organization could implement.
