Finally, @AERA_EdResearch, @APA and @NCME38 have done something they should have done 20 years ago and that is to make their Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing open access: https://t.co/hAwPJy2gEp

@MsVanhala I have heard some teachers use that prepare-for-the-next-level argument as a way to resist having to change. It makes it "not their fault" that their grading doesn't support student learning. @MsVanhala has the answer-what do you really care about? #elmagchat
@tguskey@ELmagazine Good point. Retakes/re-dos should not be just "taking another shot" to see if the teacher likes this one better. Some teachers have students explain what they've done to learn more when they ask for retakes/re-dos. #elmagchat
@donald_gately True. But retakes are plan B. Plan A is plenty of practice/feedback in the first place, grading when they know they're ready, making the more logistically difficult retakes rare events. #elmagchat
A1. The pandemic has shown a light on education practices that were always problematic. Especially, but not only, in grading. For example, trying to put effort into the grade. #elmagchat
