Making The Grade: Increasing Inclusivity Through Equitable Evaluation Practices: Poster, Patricia Desrosiers, Gayle Mallinger

Faculty/Staff Personal Papers

Grades are an essential university currency, used to determine:

• Scholarships
• Retention
• Graduate school admission

Educators are rarely encouraged to examine their own grading policies.

Traditional grading practices have perpetuated achievement gaps – particularly for our historically underrepresented students

• Learning (competence) takes time – our grading practices should recognize this
• Students should have a clear understanding of the knowledge, skills, values, and/or cognitive/affective processes they are expected to will demonstrate upon completing a lesson/unit/course activities
• Essential to support and promote students’ ownership and investment in their learning – equitable grading practices
