Got my first partial grades (Kilala.nl (Cailin Coilleach)) by Cailin Coilleach

About a week ago I turned in my first two reports for "Statistics 1 - Didactics".

The first report focused on maths education using the Getal en ruimte (Numbers and space) method. My final conclusion was that G&R; is a nice enough method, teaching students the whole gammut of statistics. IMHO, the big downside to the Getal en Ruimte books is that they're so damn distracting. Each page is a colourful, multimedia explosion. Each assignment and piece of text has markers/identifiers in the margin to further confuse matters.

The ironic thing is that I used the same G&R; series in high school. Back then they were awesome books: clear, transparent, not too hectic and a joke here and there. Things have changed a lot since I was a kid.

The second report covered the final terms for maths education in VMBO. I couldn't get my hands on all of the required books, but I managed to wing it. The Getal en ruimte method proved itself again for VMBO, readying the student for his final terms. I think the books may have glossed over a few terms a little lightly, but most students should be fine for their exams.

Both reports received a "ZG" score which translates into "Very Good". Awesome! :3 I'm definitely going to try my best to keep this score up!

What? I've already got school results and grades? (Kilala.nl (Cailin Coilleach)) by Cailin Coilleach

A modded screenshot of Osiris
Well, that was a surprise! I was dicking around in Osiris, the online student management toolset at HU. Enrolling in a few classes, signing up for tests and term papers, just generally looking around and exploring.

After clicking the Results button I was greeted with a big list. But how is it possible that I already have grades?! I just started school a week ago!

Then I took a closer look at the dates. Apparently my student number isn't the only thing that carried over to my new college enrollment ^_^
