11/ Basically "if you want someone to follow the lesson plan, you need to make it harder to cheat". Why? The lesson is there to teach how to estimate. I might have a lesson that says "react X hydrogen with Y oxygen". Writing down "water!" when the point is labwork is WRONG.

12/ If the kid wants to ignore the lesson and fail to learn proper labwork, or proper estimation technique, fine. The teacher's job is to: 1) teach the method 2) test the learning 3) provide feedback if #2 is defective

13/ The most common (dumb) response was "the question didn't say 'estimate' ". (a) the question was #9. To argue 'but the question didn't say 'estimate' is to implicitly assert full knowledge of the entire quiz -including title at the top, which might very well be 'Estimating'

14/ Even if the quiz doesn't say 'estimating' across the top, context matters. If the last week was teaching reverse polish notation on an engineering calculator, then the correct answer is "I punched 28, then 103, then plus key". If context is 'estimating'...

If the top of the quiz says "week 9: estimation", then context makes it entirely clear.
