I've been looking for comments about the bagrut on Monday, but like our
students, the teachers on the list are "playing with their cellphones". (I
let my really slow students use their phones to take a picture of the board
if they can't write. It also helps them visualize what was on the board when
they review).
My comment is about the bagrut. We just had a case of an English speaker who
was tested orally. On both Moed Aleph and Bet, the native-English speaking
teachers with decades of experience (a different teacher tested her each
time) thought an answer that was not "the" answer was the correct one. Only
the following day did we get an answer through the call in service and then
submitted the grades. If two teachers testing on Module G can't determine
the right answer (and if we hadn't waited to check with the authorities
which answer was correct, the student would have lost points based on
teacher error and not hers), there is a still a serious problem with the
questions on bagrut exams.
