Summary

The moment is right for critical reflection on what has been assumed to be a core part of schooling. In Ungrading, 15 educators write about their diverse experiences going gradeless. Some contributors are new to the practice and some have been engaging in it for decades. Some are in humanities and social sciences, some in STEM fields. Some are in higher education, but some are the K-12 pioneers who led the way. Based on rigorous and replicated research, this is the first book to show why and how faculty who wish to focus on learning, rather than sorting or judging, might proceed. It includes honest reflection on what makes ungrading challenging, and testimonials about what makes it transformative.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great tool!

This book is a great tool for those educators who want to stop grading and start letting students learn. The authors are open about their failures and their struggles, but celebrate their successes and provide paths of improvement

important subjekt for teachers and parents

Good narration. the diversity of narrators helps, although it's a kind of book that you need to pauze and take notes
