About the Book

Let's be honest: Traditional grading persists because of inertia rather than pedagogical merit. Students stress over every point, chase grades instead of understanding, and shut down when they fall behind.

Though many resources provide the rationale for grading reform, few offer the day-to-day strategies necessary for success. Veteran educators Howard Yank and Maika Yeigh help you reimagine grading so it fosters motivation, cultivates a positive mindset, and builds cultural responsiveness.

Along the way, they show how you can anticipate and overcome common challenges, provide realistic and practical options for grading reform, and transform your classroom into a space where students take ownership of their learning.

In Equitable Grading Unlocked, you'll discover how to- Uncouple practice from grading without sacrificing student engagement.- Provide valuable feedback students actually use to improve their work.- Create transparent rubrics and track progress efficiently.- Implement retakes and redos that genuinely support learning.- Handle late work without punitive policies that harm struggling students.- Enhance your gradebook to accurately reflect student learning.- Build schoolwide consistency in equitable grading practices.

Each chapter combines research-backed rationale with hard-won wisdom from educators across subjects and grade levels. You'll find specific protocols and scenarios that showcase the real experiences of teachers who have already navigated these waters--complete with their mistakes, breakthroughs, and refined approaches.

Whether you're just beginning to question traditional grading or are already implementing reforms, this book helps you create a classroom where every student can succeed--not because standards are lowered but because learning finally takes center stage.
