Remake of Assessing Student Learning Through Standards Based Grading by Carly Pumphrey https://padlet.com/pumphrey1234/j2akiwinlm5x June 12: Reflection en-us 2017-06-08 12:30:22 UTC 2025-12-11 14:14:34 UTC hello@padlet.com Okey DeRaimo https://padlet.com/pumphrey1234/j2akiwinlm5x/wish/176107053 Standards based grading supports instruction by allowing teachers to identify exactly where students are struggling in their learning, or giving us a closer look at where we need to support our students. This in turn helps to personalize learning student to student. We are able to break students into groups based on their needs as we make note of where the support is needed. It also allows students to track their success as they move through the learning.]]> 2017-06-12 14:21:27 UTC https://padlet.com/pumphrey1234/j2akiwinlm5x/wish/176107053 https://padlet.com/pumphrey1234/j2akiwinlm5x/wish/176107056 It will show what students understand.
