That pile of marking just wasn’t getting smaller quickly enough. And the deadline for the huge pile was coming so close! By the Friday, I knew things looked bad. The website said that the students could expect feedback by Tuesday. And I had several timetabled slots on both the Monday and the Tuesday! And it also needs to be moderated. I mailed my designated moderator to ask if she could moderate at the last minute. And I resigned myself to sacrificing part of my weekend.
In a way it was good that it was a bit of a gloomy, rainy day. I got started after breakfast. And I took breaks for going food shopping, watering the plants, and having lunch, but otherwise I just marked and marked.
I wasn’t even anywhere near done at the end of it. But I figured I would manage to finish it off by Tuesday. It would have to do!
