Listen "Are grades essential to learning?"
Episode Synopsis
Everything seems to be driven by grades in education. As students, we measure the success by our grades. As institutions, we accepted students and award degrees based on grades. As systems, we gauge our effectiveness by the numbers of students that pass.In all the above, where is the learning? How do we know that students are learning? How do we move from high stakes approaches to ensuring that the desired learning is actually taking place?Chris Forde and Zahi Atallah discuss the history and intent behind using grading, and present some alternatives to grading. What do you think about grades? Are they the best metric of success? Are there better approaches that you know or have adopted. We would love to hear from you.Together we revolutionize education!Like, share, and subscribe.#college #university #education #studentsuccess #highereducation #growthmindset #grading #students #learning
