And, the adult here, still did NOT set a better example for the younger generations, because the instructor wanted it to look better as a class, from the Front Page Sections, translated…
A chemistry instructor, Chen from a certain high school in Changhwa, because the grades of his class was very low, he’d changed the grades four times, adding anywhere from two to seventeen points, there were 352 students who’d benefitted from this “grade hike”, which had seriously, unbalanced the fairness of the grading systems. The school received a report and started investigating, and sent the records of what they’d found out to the law enforcement that was overseeing the issues, and, the scandal from the school got busted.
The Changwha D.A.’s Office based the fact that the teacher had confessed to going into the school’s computer systems to alter the grades of the students, or changed the grades directly on the students’ tests and had already assisted the school in the investigations, that he’d done this because he had the best interests of his students in mind, that there wasn’t any trade-offs, the D.A. decided to give the instructor a chance to improve himself, only fined him $30,000N.T.s.
The dean of the school said, that Mr. Chen started teaching in August of 2011, he takes his job very seriously and was very focused on teaching his pupils, because the school would post the average grades of each of the classes, he’d admitted that he only wanted the grades to look better, that he’d done it the wrong way, and was willing to take the reprimands; Mr. Chen was teaching normally, after the school did an executive investigation on the matter, in the teachers’ assessment this March, he had gotten one major reprimand and had two punishments, and received a C for his teaching evaluation this year.
The D.A. said, that the chemistry instructor, Chen taught the students from the first to the third year of high school. Last September after the first weekly examination, in the three classes he’d taught, there were a total of 133 students who’d not done well, and, Chen went to his office, and used his own I.D. and password, logged into the student grade records system, and altered the grades for the chemistry class, elevating the grades between 4 to 5.8 points.
Last year after the mid-terms in October, there were a total of 171 students from his class who’d done badly on the exams, Chen logged onto the student grade records system, and, added seven to seventeen points. A few days later, he believed that of the forty-eight second-year students’ grades that he’d altered still wasn’t high enough, and he’d added the points again for the second time, and increased anywhere from two to ten points of the true or false section of his students’ exam grades.
So, this is still, a VERY bad example that this instructor had set for his students, because his students didn’t do well, he’d wanted them to look good on paper, and so, he’d gone into the systems, changed the grades, without thinking, that he may need to change his teaching methods, or that the students are needing extra help on certain areas of the class, he took the easy way, and now, he’s, reprimanded. And what he did, was NOT to help his students out!
