Grading for Equity Reflection Questions by Nicole Barbour https://padlet.com/nbarbour1/bll08bs77w6rpnzu We've only just begun this journey. Let's consider what ideas and questions need to be considered as we move forward. en-us 2021-02-08 13:47:51 UTC 2021-02-12 16:09:34 UTC hello@padlet.com OUTSTANDING WORK prince12 https://padlet.com/nbarbour1/bll08bs77w6rpnzu/wish/1197044416 what does outstanding work in a virtual environment looks like?

By automatically giving them a 50 on an assessment that they didn't take feels like we are saying they mastered 50% of the material even though they didn't prove that they mastered any of it because they didn't take the assessment. I'm struggling with the 50% on assessments when they didn't take it/turn it in. - Sarah https://padlet.com/nbarbour1/bll08bs77w6rpnzu/wish/1197045915 2021-02-12 16:03:43 UTC https://padlet.com/nbarbour1/bll08bs77w6rpnzu/wish/1197045915 How will this relate to transcripts?

I feel like I have ideas, and I understand using rubrics; however, so much of demonstrating mastery in writing and speaking is based off of mastery in other skills (such as reading), and I just don't know how to tease the bias out of standards that seem so inherently subjected and intermixed. ]]> 2021-02-12 16:03:54 UTC https://padlet.com/nbarbour1/bll08bs77w6rpnzu/wish/1197046763 Will the entire school do this?

How can I push students to better themselves and work on academic skills but they also have this safety net to accept less than ideal grades and still pass? I think we'd REALLY need to explain this to students in bite size pieces because it's a different mentality for us adults, let alone parents and students. ]]> 2021-02-12 16:04:03 UTC https://padlet.com/nbarbour1/bll08bs77w6rpnzu/wish/1197047450 Making LTs assignment name -you could just change that grade once they show they've improved upon/mastered the concept based on any type of assessment, instead of one assignment or test nbarbour1 https://padlet.com/nbarbour1/bll08bs77w6rpnzu/wish/1197048383 And you could assess multiple skills/concepts in one assignment/test.

I already am on the path to doing this and give students extensive feedback to revision, but it takes A LOT OF TIME. This works in the online environment, because I have the time. I don't know how it will work with 45 minutes of prep a day. 

Additionally, I wonder if our school's scale is at odds with grade inflation at other schools (this makes it very hard to get an A). How does that hurt our student's prospects for college? ]]> 2021-02-12 16:06:07 UTC https://padlet.com/nbarbour1/bll08bs77w6rpnzu/wish/1197057452 Allowing resubmissions amenechella1 https://padlet.com/nbarbour1/bll08bs77w6rpnzu/wish/1197057471 2021-02-12 16:06:08 UTC https://padlet.com/nbarbour1/bll08bs77w6rpnzu/wish/1197057471 Drawing a line amenechella1 https://padlet.com/nbarbour1/bll08bs77w6rpnzu/wish/1197058492 When/where can we draw the line between not taking late work? Without having a set date and sticking to it, I find a lot of students wait a long time to turn things in, then get overwhelmed, and then not do it at all. By having hard limits on timetables I feel like we are teaching a life skill. Could we give limits on redos as well? Or you don't start the next level till you show mastery over the first?
