[quote=Anonymous]These are Feldman's points from "Grading for Equity" Please tell me how Madison is different. The 0-100 scale should be abandoned, and the letter grades A-F should correspond instead to a 0-4 scale. Cumulative marking period grades should only include the most recent grade, in cases when a student shows improvement over time, and earlier test scores shouldn’t be averaged with later ones. Homework, classwork, participation and effort should all be excluded from a course grade. No more zeros and the death of deadlines Test “retakes should be available whenever a students wants to improve their performance.” Earlier, lesser scores should not factor into the grade at all.
