Does the grade demonstrate what a student knows??? Probably not. And that is a problem.

The grading system a teacher creates is anything but arbitrary.

It's grounded in their values, experiences, and philosophy of education.

This is why responses to grading reform efforts are so emotional.

@MsvlCIA @SolutionTree Umm, before you get too crazy with your GIFs and praise, you might want to look at the ratings for leadership from Eric Twadell’s school, Adlai Stevenson in Lincolnshire:

[Ms. Elam @Ms_Elam]

And he just introduced himself to our school today as we begin this training. @SUHSD I hope you’re keeping your eyes open to possible issues with this training. Hoping for the best, but with eyes wide open.

[Sociology Sal @Sociologysal]

2 The Stevenson Administration (like Troy Gobble, Eric Twadell and Anthony Reibel) has travelled around the country with Solution Tree consulting to promote these ridiculous grading practices. I say ridiculous because they are not research based or peer-reviewed. #atAssessment

The group that fears getting “groomed” by Bud Light made a Mexican beer the best-selling in the US because when you get thirsty thinking about how much you hate immigrants, you want to drink Modelo.

Just finished reading Required Reading for Disenfranchised Freshman @kristenleebooks Terrific book. May try to find a way to get a class set and use it in my Soc 2 class at SUHi next year. Check it out!
