"... Students can also see much more information about their learning... standards-based grading reveals that she has not mastered a crucial concept."

"When I began using standards-based grading, I quickly discovered that I needed to reexamine my curriculum." / " No one can use standards-based grading without clear standards." >> crucial! ]]> 2018-11-13 18:43:06 UTC https://padlet.com/214563/SBG/wish/303951988 https://padlet.com/214563/SBG/wish/303952036 Will elementary report card be realigned, using the Essential Standards, so teachers can report more accurately?

Students that need the extra practice should begin to find value in homework and students that don’t need the extra practice will not waste their time. This will hopefully encourage lifelong learning. 

I do wonder about equity. For the students that need extra practice (and use homework to get that practice), how much time are they spending on their homework and how does that impact their other commitments (work for example)?]]> 2018-11-13 18:45:47 UTC https://padlet.com/214563/SBG/wish/303953878 https://padlet.com/214563/SBG/wish/303953931 Reason 6- The need to assess the quality of their own work.]]> 2018-11-13 18:45:53 UTC https://padlet.com/214563/SBG/wish/303953931 https://padlet.com/214563/SBG/wish/303954186 "If we base our grades on standards rather than attendance, behavior, or extra credit (which often has nothing to do with course objectives), we can actually help students grapple with the idea of quality and walk away with a higher degree of self-sufficiency."]]> 2018-11-13 18:46:14 UTC https://padlet.com/214563/SBG/wish/303954186 https://padlet.com/214563/SBG/wish/303954504 2018-11-13 18:46:39 UTC https://padlet.com/214563/SBG/wish/303954504 https://padlet.com/214563/SBG/wish/303954769 Can't help but see continued correlation to the power of PLCs in driving so much of the work we MUST do in order to support all students. ]]> 2018-11-13 18:47:06 UTC https://padlet.com/214563/SBG/wish/303954769 285871 https://padlet.com/214563/SBG/wish/303954889 I would like to know what our plan is to implement a standards-based grade book solution for the comprehensive high schools (in terms of a time line and solution).  Many high school teachers are interested in standards based grading but they are waiting on a district solution.

Students transfering from one building to another will benefit from this.
