One of the few key keyliners that stuck out to me after reading the article was this: “Minimal Grading: Using scales with fewer gradations to make grading ‘simpler, fairer, clearer’…”. When it comes to grading itself, this is one of the few things during my educational time period that can make me anxious sometimes.

Because many young teens and adults wanted to fit into a specific group and…

Under the alias “Charlene”, here is a constructed diagram draft of what is to come for my stock story and counterstory assignment. Listing off all the stereotypes in the “stock story” section, and the counters/resists in the “counterstory” section. These will be used for when the drafting process begins.

Short stories, in general definition, are the mostly simplistic and generalized perception of how we see a group of people, specific places, and things.
