Why Standards Based Grading and Reporting

 

Standards Based Grading and Reporting is a procedure, culture, behavior and practice used to make sure that grades are accurate, consistent, meaningful and that they promote learning. Marie uses 'the story of the B's' to illustrate what's wrong with averaging and traditional grading and why standards based grading and reporting is a more useful approach.
