Welcome to Standards-Based Grading!

 

Standards-based grading is a powerful method of evaluating and reporting student work based on standards. It requires change in both classroom philosophy and practice. Whether you're new to these ideas or have been implementing them for years, there are resources here for you.

 

You can use Books and Articles to build background knowledge, or Research for a deeper look at grading practices. You can read and engage with peers who are actively using standards-based grading in their classrooms with Blogs and Social Media. Visit the Policy page for examples of classroom and district grading practices. Software and Reporting Tools will give you a look at new ways to communicate grades to various stakeholders, including links for data visualization. You can also use the buttons below to visit my other sites.
