Fried Chicken and Sushi 196 Grading in Japan can be tricky

Sato sensei seems to be asserting her dominance!  By standing on a table?  Well, it got Karl's attention.  I remember how confusing it was for me to switch over to the Japanese way of using check marks to grade papers.  It still confuses me that a check mark means the answer is wrong.  If it's correct you circle it!  I had to constantly remind myself of what I was doing while grading a quiz!  Let's hope Karl can get it straight!

When I was in school, you really don't want to know how long ago, a check meant it was wrong and nothing meant it was right.

Maybe that changes when they invented the new math in the 70's when all of education seemed to have changed. So much seems to have been left out of "modern" education, History, geography, civics... We were all suppose to know history generally, at least, from the earliest record days to the present. Be able to at least find your own country on a globe and understand how your own government worked

Signs of old age I guess.

Not hard at all! Remember that on the Japanese Playstation, ○ selects and × cancels. On the American Playstation × selects and ○ cancels. Same thing, right?
