Yeah, it's great! Although: I use both of those ("Revisable" and "New Attempt Needed" is what I call them). That's because not every error is revisable -- if there's a serious issue, the student needs to try again from scratch.
Ah yes—that is more nuanced, thank you. I’m a bit more rigid in my “new attempt” opportunities, depending on the situation, but I can see cases where it would be warranted, or better to frame it that way. I’m giving a presentation on alternative grading on Tuesday at an internal conference and I reference Grading for Growth quite frequently—hopefully you’ll see some book sales out of it! Game-changer for me.
Thanks, and good luck with your presentation! (Robert and I frequently give keynotes, workshops, and Q&A sessions that are sponsored by teaching & learning centers at various institutions, so feel free to reach out too.)
Ooh! I like “revisable” more than “not yet” I think! It puts the agency more in the hands of the student and the process. Thank you!

I love the use of the word "Revisable." That little tweak helps both students and teachers view mistakes more accurately.
