Why do we grade? What do we hope to accomplish by grading? And is there a better way to accomplish those goals? This session will explore the evidence supporting “ungrading” practices and what such practices might look like across the curriculum.

In preparation for the session, we encourage participants to read the introduction to Ungrading: Why Rating Students Undermines Learning (and What to Do Instead), available for free via Project Muse when you log in using your Dartmouth credentials (Institutional Login in top left corner).
