I kind of figured this shit would jump to jobs quickly. In my last 25 years of working, I have received clear(ish), usually written instructions, of what to do and since it’s a job then what is expected of you for output is very focused. Not only that but the manager is directly incentivized to ensure you’re on the right task.

From how this written, it seems like the movie was likely said orally and the rubric would likely just state an essay due for that time.

So again, what is the overall goal of school? Attention to details is definitely a part of that but more how you’re thinking about the task. This is the reason math teachers often give partial credit if you make a small mistake early on but follow the correct procedure. Should you fail the essay for a spelling mistake? Attention to detail is crucial, right?

Let’s take your example, they did the wrong scenes and put your production behind schedule. You even state that they do an amazing set of storyboards. So your first jump is to micromanaging instead of doing some counseling and slightly altering how tasks are handed out. In that particular example, scenes aren’t banged out in an hour, so that tells me that you didn’t check in on progress at all. Not wanting to micromanage doesn’t mean they’re off on their own entirely. So you have an employee that does amazing work but might require written tasks and a check in but guess it’s the end of the world.

Good god, this shit right here is why school really gets under my skin.

Here let’s present it in a different way. Write an essay on problematic humor in Revenge of the Nerds II. They do an essay on the history of Nintendo. Ya, that’s a failure cause they did something completely different. But if they did an essay on the Revenge of the Nerds, then a few points off for attention to detail.

The main thing should be what is overall being evaluated or trying to be taught.
