This is the first I’ve heard of your movement. It is so cool that you’ve made such a strong foundation for change. Since Crooks (1988) paper documenting the pernicious effects of low grades on academic achievement motivation and the distortion in cognition they introduce in the intentions and strategies of learner, I’ve been highly critical of the whole tradition. I’ve always felt it was too big of a mountain to move. To see the incredible progress you’ve made is encouraging. Btw, part of my dissertation was an alternative method of grading.
That's so neat, Terry! I also did my dissertation on alternative grading. The mountain is indeed huge, but it's great to climb it with such good folks. Thanks for reading!
