Crazy scenes here from my class meeting set aside for reattempts on the latest learning targets. Looks like this section is feeling pretty good about things. #altgrading #specsgrading

Happy to be included in this alternative #assessment starter pack! 6 years at a narrative evaluation-based college forever changed how I think about teaching, learning, and assessment. Now I’m using various modes like #specsgrading and #ungrading in my Neuroscience and First-Year Seminar courses.

Updated my "Equitable Evaluation & Grading For Growth" handout, in case anyone would find it useful! docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Notorious #SBG, #specsGrading, #SinglePointRubric = all excellent ways to promote mastery, expertise, growth. https://twitter.com/cultofpedagogy/status/997963897478041600

Applies to feedback on all types of work, inc math and proofs. #specsgrading = Spend more time on this, less time calling A's, B's, and C's. https://twitter.com/ithinkwellHugh/status/884651336880373764

@southbaysharona.bsky.social going back and listening to the grading pod, which is excellent. Can you point me to any expanded writing you have on the 4 Pillars that you and Robert discuss? #ungrading #grading #highereducation #specsgrading

Early look at my first go at #specsgrading in #orgo looks like there is some slight grade inflation with a direct comparison to points earned on the high stakes assessments. Drop rate is kinda high, but most of those students were not doing well enough to continue. Identified a lot of improvements

This article explores how CC faculty experience the transition to #altgrading approaches (contract grading, #ungrading, #specsgrading.
Lots of interest BUT implementation is often constrained by affective barriers, structural challenges, & gaps in leadership/collaboration.

Hey #EduSky I’m looking for some ways to make a tracker for my #specsgrading course. I have tried explaining it and stds understand it, but looking for some chart/tracking ideas! #altgrading #HigherEd #syllabus work instead of #grading 😂
