Grades are imperfect, shorthand answers to ""What did students
learn, and how well?"" In How to Use Grading to Improve Learning,
best-selling author Susan M. Brookhart guides educators at all
levels in figuring out how to produce grades-for single assignments
and report cards-that accurately communicate students' achievement
of learning goals. Brookhart explores topics that are fundamental
to effective grading and learning practices: Acknowledging that all
students can learn. Supporting and motivating student effort and
learning. Designing and grading appropriate assessments. Creating
policies for report card grading. Implementing learning-focused
grading policies. Communicating with students and parents.
Assessing school or district readiness for grading reform. The book
is grounded in research and resonates with the real lessons learned
in the classroom. Although grading is a necessary part of
schooling, Brookhart reminds us that children are sent to school to
learn, not to get grades. This highly practical book will help you
put grading and learning into proper perspective, offering
strategies you can use right away to ensure that your grading
practices actually support student learning.
