Manage episode 382591355 series 3308477
Grades demotivate student learning. That is a problem. Faculty also often spend significant amounts of time grading. Another problem. So, if we know grading demotivates learning and we are spending lots of our time grading, are we working against ourselves? Are we working against the goals of our courses?
