The grading system will be set up thusly, with a few minor variations.
10 points - Effort
10 points - Presentation
10 points - Adherence to Code
10 points - Relevance to lesson
10 points - Content
The only time a person is graded is when they are posting in a lesson thread. The OP is the one who grades the students.
Effort: How much thought was put into the post before the student began typing? It's often easy to tell whether or not the student actually values the lesson.
Presentation: Even the best thought out posts can be presented poorly. I think it should be important for students to present themselves with their best when in the learning environment. How and what they do on their free time is their own business.
Code: Is the student able to keep control of his emotion and passion? Does the student know how to bring the Jedi dogma into his/her life?
Relevance: Typing about poop when the lesson was on cows makes no sense.
Content: The quality of the post itself. While you don't have to have a ten thousand page essay for every lesson, this is the sum of all the previous points in the grading scale. If you did an exceptional job responding to a lesson, you will get a 10 for content.
