Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Teachers, parents, students, administrators, and community members all agree that we need better grading and reporting systems. Often, these systems are inadequate because they are part of a tradition that can go unexamined and unquestioned for years. Here is the first serious look at the issue, written to provide all those involved - especially teachers - with a coherent and thoughtful framework. Guskey and Bailey offer four pillars of successful grading and reporting systems: - Communication is the primary goal of grading and reporting - Grading and reporting are integral parts of the instructional process - Good reporting is based on good evidence - Creating change in grading and reporting requires creating a multi-faceted reporting system Written to help readers develop a deeper and more reflective understanding of the various aspects of the subject, Thomas Guskey and Jane Bailey¿s work brings organization and clarity to a murky and disagreement-filled topic. Here is a practical and essential guide for teachers, administrators or anyone concerned with understanding and implementing best practices in grading and reporting systems.
