Hybrid Pedagogy is proud to announce publication of Undoing the Grade: Why We Grade, and How to Stop by Jesse Stommel. This book represents over 20 years of thinking and writing about grades. The work of ungrading is to ask hard questions, point to the fundamental inequities of grades, and push for structural change. Undoing the Grade offers pedagogies and practices that make assessment more equitable
@hrheingold If there’s no grade, why is there assessment? @Jessifer @birv2
@AlliFlowers @Jessifer @birv2 l Formative assessment helps the learner. Normative assessment is for asministrators. Taste the soup to see it needs salt vs taste the soup to review it.
@hrheingold I am a big fan of formative assessment. But until states do away with high stakes testing, summative assessment will be providing grades. @Jessifer @birv2

our department conversation yesterday about AI and its potential / its potential for cheating went to the ungrading place — setting up the work so the students work toward intrinsic not extrinsic rewards. 🙂
But we are on a college campus…
@scholar_farmer Somehow adult learning (andragogy) has that built in, while child learning (pedagogy) requires extrinsic reward for the majority. @birv2 @Jessifer @hrheingold
