[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]APS and the School Board last night had their first working session to discuss setting a new grading policy by the end of this school year, with changes driven by equity concerns (based off of the book "Grading for Equity" by Joe Feldman, which 100+ at APS are reading right now and every SB member received a copy of last night). a) Eliminating late penalties for turning in homework late b) Allowing retakes of tests Thoughts? Anyone know about empirical results? Downsides?[/quote] I'd never have gone to university let alone earned a professional graduate degree if a and b had existed when I went to school in the 1990s. Homework would never have been done, ever.[/quote]
