Alternative Grading with WashU Faculty

Event Description

Hear from colleagues at WashU who have implemented alternative grading practices in their classrooms and learn that there’s more than one way to grade. In this in-person workshop, we will provide a brief overview of the most common alternative grading formats, provide opportunities to ask questions of your peers who have used some of these grading methods, and point you towards resources to get you started with alternative grading systems like specifications grading, contract grading, or ungrading.

Our experienced faculty colleagues will include:

• Nic Koziolek, Senior Lecturer in Philosophy & PNP, and Teaching, Research, and Practice Faculty Fellow in the Office of the Provost
• Kevin Brennan, Lecturer in the Division of Engineering Education

This workshop is aimed at those with little to no experience implementing non-traditional grading in their courses.

Lunch is provided. The workshop is supported by Here & Next.

If you have any questions, please contact Rick Moore, Associate Director of Faculty Programming.

Registration

Note: Lunches have been ordered based on registration at the end of Wednesday. You’re still very welcome to register and attend as long as the workshop is not full, but we cannot guarantee a lunch to those who register on Thursday or Friday morning.
