[quote=Anonymous]He didn't even get into talking about removing pluses and minuses from grades. There was some talk about how grades aren't accurate for a variety of reasons if not skills based but no correlation to why each summative taken is better when graded with a larger differential between grades. If we are trying to make grades less subjective it doesn't stand to reason that making the differential greater helps. Maybe he has a point in grading to larger margins for summatives and seemed to be trying to make a case that more generalistic grades give more fluidity to movement but it wasn't well explained and seemed to go against what he said colleges were looking at and how kids learn. The grading by whole letter grades needed it's own separate talk. [/quote]
