Beyond the Grade ― Refining Practices That Boost Student Achievement - a Study Guide for Switching to Standards-based Grading to Foster Growth Mindset and Promote Equity
商品資訊
商品簡介
The current grading system doesn’t provide equal opportunity for low-income students and that leads to grade inflation, high dropout rates, productivity loss, and more.
To help all students succeed, and promote equity in learning, vast changes in grading policies and scheduling are needed. In this research-based resource, the authors examine why current grading practices are ineffective for fostering a growth mindset, including the effect poverty has on student achievement. Beyond the Grade present an evidence-based case for switching to an equitable, standards-based grading system that improves student achievement for diverse student populations.
