Why do you think it’s difficult to transition from k-12 grading now to contract grading? by Arianna Quetzal Vargas https://padlet.com/avargas224/ilvlfsh12drhy1te Made with an aura of mystery en-us 2022-08-31 04:56:33 UTC 2023-02-12 05:59:19 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/avargas224/ilvlfsh12drhy1te/wish/2473929754 I think it's difficult because all I've known is "grades, grades, grades" so focusing on something else is just different]]> 2023-02-08 18:37:58 UTC https://padlet.com/avargas224/ilvlfsh12drhy1te/wish/2473929754 https://padlet.com/avargas224/ilvlfsh12drhy1te/wish/2473930160 May be difficult since people have to get used to an entire new and different way of grading.

One of my other teachers also uses contract grading and I like it better.

So grades are almost in our control and surrounded by actually being educated to get by.
