Suppose a teacher is correcting an exam; if the student gets a question right, the teacher writes a check mark
; but if the answer is wrong, the pupil receives a big cross
. In English-speaking countries, what symbol would the teacher use if the answer is partially correct? How would they indicate that the student is not completely mistaken? For example, in an open-ended response, there might be some spelling/grammar errors, which do not invalidate the student's reasoning but show that further improvement is needed.
Thanks in advance.
