A2 I do a version of standards based grading. Only grade assessments w/descriptive rubrics. Give detailed, actionable feedback & let everyone revise for the higher grade. Projects: I give a late/revised deadline a week later without it hurting their grade #ungradingchat
A2 I’ve been grading this way for about 7 years & have made some tweaks, but it’s been working really well. Students tell me they have to work hard but appreciate it, even years later #ungradingchat
A2. Did SBG multiple times, latest was following Liljedahl, most went only marginally better than traditional. It never brought the focus to learning and problem solving as long as content remained the focus. Did gamification, I didn’t give it enough of a chance. Skills-based was good #UngradingChat
A2. Things didn’t finally come together until portfolios and conferencing with a focus on skills in the classroom. Bringing Ss into the process and giving them choice and agency was key to making it work. Teaching Ss to self-assess and advocate for themselves gives what they need #UngradingChat
A2. Self-assessment of assignments via process letters that reflect on process & product. I give detailed feedback on everything. Multiple check ins & scaffolded assignments. Final grade is collaborative. Final ‘grades’ similar to conventional eval. #ungradingchat
