Abstract Scope |
I am in the process of redesigning my team based-project based intro to MS&E course using the principles in the recently published book "Grading for Growth" by Robert Talbert and David Clark. I will present the ways I plan to use a grading table and how each assessment will include feedback loops to help students pass. I will also talk out how I am developing Module level standards to assess learning against. Finally I will talk about why, after 12 years of eschewing exams, I plan to give a final exam - but only for those students who earn the right to get an A. |
