Developing Student Minds

A characteristic “J” shaped trail of seven bi-weekly test scores is often created by students who make the transition from passive pupil to active self-correcting student (scholar).

Is this a change from using the bicameral mind to the introspective mind?

Bill Rowe’s “Two Origins of Consciousness”, Chapter 11 in Gods, Voices and the Bicameral Mind: the Theories of Julian Jaynes, edited by Marcel Kuijsten, 2016, raised the above question.

Is scoring for both quantity and quality a simple way of creating the mental environment for the change to take pace?

Students select from 50 questions to report what they know or can do. Quantity represents the number of right marks. Quality is the percent of marks that are right.

Students voted to value knowledge and judgment equally for the test score.
