Grading


Thoughts on Grading

Purpose:

·         To inform students and parents of progress, areas of strengths and weaknesses

·         Assessing student learning for the  teacher to know what concepts have been grasped and which need remediation

% mastery:

·         Progress, what is mastered and what is not

·         Where students fall in a range compared to other students

·         Passing/Failing based on state and school system standards

Rubrics:

·         Allow for creativity, timeliness, use of time, and demonstration of content knowledge

·         Can be used where there would be ambiguity in the grading

·         Best for project based assignments

·         Outlines clear expectations.
