Learning About Bias

I was considered to be one of the more advanced students in school. My grades usually matched my expectations. There was one time that I got a grade that I couldn’t comprehend. I never confronted my teacher, but I did learn about one of the flaws in the grading process. Grades are subjective. If my teachers don’t like me, my grades will suffer. After talking to a few people, I became convinced that bias was negatively impacting my grades. There are people who really never grasped the concept of bias. I understood the concept in elementary school.
