Colleagues are rightfully concerned about the long-term cognitive and social effects of COVID, especially on long-term learning and motivation. Deci/Ryan's Self Determination Theory (SDT 1985) argues that intrinsic motivation includes 3 components: autonomy, competence, and relatedness. Further, they contend that we don’t motivate students to achieve—we create learning environments in which they motivate themselves to […]
In a recent FDC Reading Circle colleagues explored Joe Feldman’s controversial Grading for Equity, which calls into question long-held pedagogical practices. The book takes readers on a compelling journey to evaluate inconsistent grading practices and illuminate how some of our most common practices may be perpetuating achievement and opportunity gaps. In this Learning by Design (LBD) Studio, we share […] |

In this Learning by Design (LBD) Studio, we share insight from the […] |

While some of our common conventional grading practices perpetuate inequitable and ineffective strategies to assess learning, what options foster more equitable outcomes? How might we more fairly evaluate group and individual learning, account for late or incorrect work, and deal with integrity violations using these practices? In this Learning by Design (LBD) Studio, we draw […] |
