"When performance is the goal, [John Downes-Angus] says, students are taught to focus on reading and writing short passages like those on the exam, which can box out building other skills—like reading full books—that a professor will expect students to have already developed." #AlternateGrading
I love this @josheyler.bsky.social we have just been through our final exam season and while we didn’t get it all right - we did choose no harm where we could and got some push back but some strong colleagues are seeing it through #unimelbmds #alternategrading #students
I use flexible due dates and invite unlimited revisions of work. It's interesting to me that most of my Ss still request permission to submit "late" or "have another chance", even though we are 10 weeks in and I've explained x 1000 that they don't need to ask. 🤔 #HigherEd #AlternateGrading #EduSky
