A student is writing an editorial article for the school newspaper. The article is about the benefits and drawbacks of students being able to grade their teachers’ performance. The student wants to revise the draft to clearly connect the points made to support his claim. Read the draft of the editorial, and then answer the question.

Teachers have always graded their students’ performance based on their knowledge and progress in a particular subject. So, shouldn’t the students in turn be able to grade the performance of their teachers? It would benefit the teacher’s understanding of what teaching methods work best within the classroom. It would also bring light to whether or not the teacher is getting through to his or her students. Students who were unable to voice their opinion about a particular behavior that they felt unprofessional would be able to share it on their own grading report. This also will provide good teachers with the motivation to continue to do their absolute best with methods that are working. After seeing the results of their evaluation, teachers can then focus on bettering their methodology in the classroom.

The real question is whether or not students themselves are mature enough to take the grading process seriously. Students may misinterpret what truly makes a good teacher and evaluate them purely based on the easiness of a class. Sometimes students may have a favorite teacher, but they may not base that upon the actual effectiveness of that particular teacher. The most adverse effect to the student’s evaluation is whether it intimidates the teacher to lessen their authoritativeness in the classroom. Students would also have to remain anonymous to ensure the teacher cannot penalize them for a poor evaluation.

Which two transition sentences would improve the link between the paragraphs of this article?

A.) However, students may not be ready to properly evaluate their teachers.

B.) Clearly, students evaluating their teachers is a great idea.

C.) Students grading their teacher’s performance will be beneficial for both the student and the teacher.

D.) Adversely, students grading their teachers can have a negative effect on their teacher's performance.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

A makes the connection between the paragraphs relevant, clear, and concise.

The sentences "However, students may not be ready to properly evaluate their teachers." and "Adversely, students grading their teachers can have a negative effect on their teacher's performance." improve the link between the paragraphs of this article. So the correct option is A and D.

Two transitional phrases could be used in this article to strengthen the connection between the paragraphs:

1. 1) However, it's possible that pupils aren't ready to evaluate their teachers in a valid way. This transitional phrase identifies a potential problem with pupils rating the performance of their teachers.

It introduces the notion that pupils can lack the maturity or comprehension needed to fairly evaluate their professors. The previous statement, which concentrated on the advantages of students assessing their teachers, is contrasted by this one.

2) C.) It will be advantageous for both the student and the teacher if the students evaluate their teachers' performance. This transitional phrase offers a direct connection between the two paragraphs in a straightforward and succinct manner.

It supports the notion that there are advantages to students rating their professors, going back to the concept of advantages in the preceding paragraph. It serves as a logical extension of the first paragraph's argument. These transitional phrases serve to keep the article's coherence by establishing a clear connection between paragraphs and maintaining a seamless flow of ideas. So the correct option is A and D.
