Reflection- In your experience with reading about, planning to use, and/or using ungrading, what are one to two challenges you encountered/realized? by Shradha Tibrewal https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o We would love to hear your thoughts! thank you! en-us 2022-01-25 19:47:59 UTC 2022-01-27 19:09:07 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016525010 I'm very concerned that some ungrading methods can be oppressive, because they are based on qualitative assessments of learning/knowledge, rather than quantitative and anonymized assessments (such as a multiple choice exam, etc)

I think this can be mitigated in some contexts but in others it is more challenging]]> 2022-01-27 18:29:38 UTC https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016529546 Accurate self-assessment, and time for individualized feedback mcover14_1 https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016531321 I have tried ungrading-lite in an UD class, but even there I saw issues with self-assessment. Students and I fell back on completion (0/1 grading) and accuracy (performance on tests) for assessment. It was hard for all of us to evaluate growth, curiosity, excitement, passion for learning. And hard for me to spend the time with each student to tease those out.]]> 2022-01-27 18:30:35 UTC https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016531321 incompatible with lowest Bloom's levels? https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016537836 Many of our assessments are of fairly basic factual recall--can ungrading be implemented at this level?]]> 2022-01-27 18:33:45 UTC https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016537836 Understanding what students really grasp takes a lot of one-on-one time. https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016537951 2022-01-27 18:33:50 UTC https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016537951 Time https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016541341 I've definitely heard about 1000+ person classes that utilize ungrading... but they've always had 50+ TAs :) For those of us who might teach 100+ students with no grading support, how can we start to think about implementing these strategies?]]> 2022-01-27 18:35:30 UTC https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016541341 The two challenges are 1) the time and consideration needed to develop the framework and 2) the training of students that have no idea about the standards and how to self-evaluate. https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016542635 2022-01-27 18:36:11 UTC https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016542635 https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016543910 I am worried about the time/effort applying ungrading in large classes (with no TA help). 
2. I'm concerned that this would not actually reduce student stress/anxiety, since there is still evaluation/grading, but under a different name.]]> 2022-01-27 18:36:46 UTC https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016543910 I give several low-stakes assignments in my non-majors course. Students get credit for answering questions, and I give feedback. The challenge is when I think students are copying and pasting answers from the internet. I try to catch it and comment on it when I think it's happening, but it's tricky. https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016544826 2022-01-27 18:37:15 UTC https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016544826 Continuity kellyacotter https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016592013 I hardly ever see the same students in sequence, so building trust for ungrading over time would be tough]]> 2022-01-27 19:00:03 UTC https://padlet.com/shradhat/cdwo9x5gehlf3g1o/wish/2016592013
