I can use QR codes in my classroom as ways to get students all on the same website instantaneously. For instance, if I am requiring students to participate in a Kahoot!, I can provide a QR code and put it up on the board, so that each student can easily access it. Another way I can incorporate QR codes in my classroom could be to use them for attendance purposes. Students could come into class each day, scan the attendance QR code, and not worry about having to sit silent while attendance is called.
The Case Study Situation:
Ms. Rodriguez has implemented a new LMS that offers automated grading features for short answer questions, significantly reducing her grading time. However, some students are expressing concerns about the accuracy of the automated feedback, particularly for nuanced responses.
The Ethical Dilemma:
Should Ms. Rodriguez rely heavily on the automated grading system for efficiency, potentially risking inaccurate feedback for certain students, or should she prioritize manual grading to ensure more personalized assessment, which could lead to increased workload?
I would address this case study by focusing on the pros and cons of using the new LMS technology that automatically grades short answer questions. Yes, this technology could lighten Ms. Rodriguez's workload. However, I agree that a more personalized and human-oriented way of grading short-answer questions would benefit the student more. Afterall, the student should be the focus of the teacher's work, not lessening their own workload.
