HW helps students learn even though the payoff may not be immediate.
HW helps practice a skill necessary to meet standard.
HW may be used on some assessments.

Students now held accountable in different ways.
Summative assessments still exist.
Need to remember we are grading students on level of proficiency and not "soft skills." That is how they are held accountable.

Departments are at different places.
Grading carries more meaning.
It is easier to grade work on levels of proficiency (varies department to department).
Not there yet, though.
Need to help students with self-reflection.

Something new feels like more work in the beginning.
Grading is different but not more work.
Develop a routine that works for teachers but provides more specific information through performance indicators for students and parents.

It actually does lend it self to differentiation.
Helps teachers create different pathways for these students (supports and challenges).
Teachers give better feedback to help individualized instruction.

Students can see specifically their strength and weaknesses and improve from whereever they currently are

The new three Rs are revise, revise, revise. In life, we are often allowed retakes. Licenses, SATs, etc. R&R helps you practice as you learn until you are successful, which is a real life strategy.

-You have to reach level of proficiency in the real world (driving a car, being a surgeon)
-Routines and systems are needed to hold students accountable.
-Using feedback important for real world.
- Students are not adults!  They should be allowed multiple chances
-Time is variable. Mastery is not a competition about who gets there first

The new three Rs are revise, revise, revise. There are several times in life when retakes and revisions are allowed: SATs, driver's lice

Teachers should not feel compelled to grade every practice or every effort. Teacher feedback in real time can replace grading of student practice.

# data[].attributes.body
Students can always redo any grade.
-Colleges won't value standards based grading
- Students like a specific number rather than a broad range (they like a 88, rather than a meets)
-Parents don't understand MBL
-High achieving kids are having anxiety trying to get a 100

# data[].attributes.body
MBL actually encourages differentiation of instruction.  Giving feedback isn't enough.  Students need modified work and materials to meet individual needs.  Differentiation needs to be specific to the student.

Myth 3
It supports struggling students who need more time.
Multiple opportunities and resources can support student needs or challenge growth to move forward.

# data[].attributes.body
-Less grading of superficial work such as HW
-In theory able to focus comments and feedback on what is most important.

# data[].attributes.body
Ss are still assessed formatively and summatively, and they receive actionable feedback.
Turning in work is not sufficient; Ss need to perform against specific criteria.

# data[].attributes.body
-student work can and should look different-but can still show mastery
-appropriate differentiation (content, process, product)
-students can be graded considering accommodations
-students are measured against their own personal progress

# data[].attributes.body
Teachers establish routines with checkpoints, considering extended time and other accommodations, to hold students accountable based on where they are at any given time.

-Homework is practice/application of knowledge.
-Homework is preparation. Opportunity to be leaders of their own learning and build foundation to improve upon.

3. There does need to be a deadline.
