Art IS subjective. However, many art teachers assign grades based on
rubrics. A rubric allows for objectivity. Say, did you get a rubric
with your last tattoo, Kavvy? Duh. Didn't think so.

Good.

Win? Is this a race to see who Lubbert Das calls a dope next? I won
that race. Neener, neener!

"Even a dope like Curt slaps you around over and over again and you
think you are winning some sort of fight."
Lubbert Das

/Do/ you think you're winning some sort of fight, Kavin?

Hmm. If so, well, maybe you're the winner of this month's dope
race. ;o)

Oh, so now we have objective subjectivity.

Paddle.

I gather that you can read, Kavvy, but can you begin to comprehend?

Maybe a comparison will help.

Paddle, canoe, river, hmm.

Okay, just as a rubric helps an individual navigate a subjective
course of instruction, so does a paddle help an individual navigate a
river. Well, given a canoe or some other flotation device. Maybe a
volleyball would work. Find some white water and give it a go!

Why did I know you wouldn't recognize it?

And why did you got to AA with it?

Something else your loving uncle taught you?

Or was it Granny?

Truly. I understand that rubrics are used because teachers have
become pussies and can no longer control what they do. You put down
in writing the objectives so not only will the student do exactly what
you want, but you HAVE to grade the project according to the rubric.
"Oh, my hands are tied because the student reached the objectives I
laid out." Brilliant.

I've been to the web-sites.

These types of things happen when people are insecure in their
abilities.

I'd say that fits you perfectly. I'll bet your middle name is Rubric.

No a paddle is a way to move the canoe. It navigates in a strictly
physical manner.

The rubric is more like a set of instructions that says: Stroke on
left side once, right side four times, then repeat. At the third
rock, you will get out of the water and transport the canoe to river
#2, etc.

If you do not accomplish these tasks, the instructor will lower your
grade.

Try this one:

A rubric is the guide used to score performance assessments in a
reliable, fair, and valid manner and is generally composed of
dimensions for judging student performance, a scale for rating
performances on each dimension, and standards of excellence for
specified performance levels.

Did I miss something Curt?

Oh, wait, you never said YOU used them.

It's apparent that you don't know much, Kav. ;o)

Define it.

A=A is not a far leap, at least visually, from AA.

Newp.

Repetitive, Kavvy. Still, always brings a smile.

Found this granny, too, while doing the Google.

So, if I don't use a rubric, then what?

Zat so?

Forevah and always?

And that's your fantasy quote of the minute, Kavvy?

Unlike you, apparently.

And? Again, if I don't use a rubric, then what? Well, Kavin Have-Yer-
Cake-And-Eat-It-Too Taylor, what if I *don't* say, "Oh, my hands are
tied because the student reached the objectives I laid out," hmm? What
then?

> Kavin

Hey, you and your one paddle have neatly circled back to the subject
of art by way of painting yourself into a corner. Not a bad way to
spend your time, I'd guess. ;o)

Hey, Kavvy, replying to my own post here because, well, it's typical
of you to run up against a few of my post and then quit. You know,
just snip it all and add a "Curt wrote:" with NOTHING attached that
I'd written. Honestly, I don't blame you.

Anyway I mentioned that I thought you'd missed all the fun stuff or
schtufff, what have you. Just got back from the grocery where I picked
up some orange juice and browsed the current Rolling Stone and saw
America Ferrera (sp?) from, I think it was titled _Real Women Have
Curves_.

Anywayanyways, I've never seen her new show _Ugly Betty_ but I
remember her from the movie and also she's on the cover of
Entertainment Weekly, iirc. And what i DO recall correctly is that
Stephen King has a column in the back of the magazine and in this
week's or month's or whatever's column, he's calling for the creation
of a Department of Fun.

Don't wait by the phone.

He mentioned comedian Lewis Black as a nomination or a person to help
run the DOF.

Whatever. I'm just saying. YOU need some fun. Get some.

And, hey, why don't you follow your own advice and, how'd you put it?
Think really, really hard before you reply? I think that was it.

Good luck.
