| I thought this was cute. Also, it's an example of brainstorming. |
On Monday/Tuesday, we'll be meeting with other 1302 classes and experts from around campus as part of the Compocon project. Here are the details:

Please come during our class time with your research question and something to take notes with. You'll have an opportunity to discuss your projects with other students and get feedback from a variety of different people.
Your assignment will be as follows:
Write a one page reflection on your experience with our first Compocon meeting. Who did you talk with? How are you going to use this information to help you with your research?
This needs to be typed, double spaced. It is due on Wednesday/Thursday after Compocon.
Hello fellow students, I wanted to make a suggestion for people with a research question along the lines of grade investigation, their meaning or meaninglessness or even standardized testing. I was doing some reading on my own research a stumbled upon a test devised by physicists in an American university called "Force Concept Inventory", it kind of gives some background into how people who have higher grades tend to (not always of course)be better at memorizing, not that lower grades told them anything either but it stands on the theory that grades don't predict the student's ability to use certain knowledge or their real understanding of it.High grades don't guarantee knowledge retention either or what students will be able to do.Hope this helps somebody,I though it quite interesting and although to me it seemed obvious I found out it wasn't quite so.
