Case: Mastery Grading
Student A has tried very hard all semester on each assignment and assessment. They have shown progress over time but is currently failing. Student B is very capable but has played around the whole semester. He or she is failing, but could have been passing all along. Student B does well on assessments, but fails to complete or turn in all other assignments. How do you ensure that mastery grading is done fairly with the two students? Is it fair for student B to recieve a passing grade or the same privileges as student A?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Grading must be done according to mastery of standards. Id student A is still not meeting standards, it is important for grades to reflect that. Unfortunately, grading based on individual traits would be too subjective. What if you passed Student A and then they did not do well on standardized testing, for example? Parents would be confused as to why their grades are vastly different. |

Comments: I agree. This is exactly what has occurred with my own child who has a learning disability that doesn't meet intervention standards by the system. She was passed for effort, but has not learned enough to pass the SAT. Being subjective in teaching hurts the student in the long run. |
