Is standards based grading a more sophisticated 30% =D….?
Board passed a policy. Admin told us to “think about it”, which means they don’t know and want us to do the work.
But I like to walk in knowing something. So I’ve been looking into it. The grade is the mode. And I can see admin NOT using the mode and pressuring us to use the fluke highest grade.
But not using the mean, means a student needs no stamina. Be able to produce excellence for a duration.
I see this really backfiring with math.
Anyone else have any experience with this?
