Q2: Where are you (building/district) on reporting S progress? With traditional letter grades or progress based on standards? #ankedchat

MeganCMoMo Sep 8 @ 9:13 PM EDT

A1: In SB learning is constant and time is variable, for SR it is the opposite. #ankedchat

A2: We just got completely into growth based grading. Used to correlate the number to a letter grade in previous years. #ankedchat

PeaceLoveMHeine - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:16 PM EDT

@Mr_Lisek so how did that go - correlating the number to a letter? #ankedchat

@GroveEnglish Are you on Tweetdeck? #ankedchat

PeaceLoveMHeine - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@MeganCMoMo Do you have to give a letter grade as well? #ankedchat

DRich0696 - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@MeganCMoMo Same - we say we are SRG but only some are. #ankedchat

Mr_Lisek Sep 8 @ 9:18 PM EDT

@PeaceLoveMHeine We developed a system between 50% and 100% percent and broke down the 1-4 scale to correlate with a %. #ankedchat

DRich0696 - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:18 PM EDT

We have never really be an SBG district. SRG is a more accurate description. #ankedchat

MeganCMoMo Sep 8 @ 9:19 PM EDT

@Mr_Lisek That's awesome! They (Ps, Ss) dont need the letter. They only want it because its comfortable #ankedchat

MeganCMoMo Sep 8 @ 9:19 PM EDT

@PeaceLoveMHeine I do. I wish I didn't. #ankedchat

DRich0696 - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:20 PM EDT

Q3: Does a grade mean something different in a SRG system than in a traditional grading system? #ankedchat

BurtonHable Sep 8 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A3: Hopefully an SRG grade has more information about progress related to specific standards than a TG grade #ankedchat

PeaceLoveMHeine - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:22 PM EDT

A3: I'm not sure what a grade in a traditional system means... #ankedchat

Mr_Lisek Sep 8 @ 9:22 PM EDT

A3: Yes. W/traditional grading outside factors weigh down the grade; often doesn't reflect Ss true learning. SRG shifts that. #ankedchat

Q4: Why change the way we grade? How does that help the big education picture? #ankedchat

DRich0696 - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:24 PM EDT

A3: Wait, what does a grade really mean in a traditional system? Ha, trick question - nobody knows! #ankedchat

DRich0696 - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A4: If we don't change the way we grade we continue to deny Ss & Ps the legitimate information about S learning they deserve. #ankedchat

PeaceLoveMHeine - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A4: It's not just about the way we grade - it's about the way we teach. Ss deserve to know where they are with their learning #ankedchat

BurtonHable Sep 8 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A4: Feedback! Ss know where they are in relation to the standards. What’s good? What needs to get better? #ankedchat

DRich0696 - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A4: It's the right thing to do. #ankedchat

MeganCMoMo Sep 8 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A3: In SBG is NOT the end goal: LEARNING is. Traditional grading is about chasing points. #ankedchat

Mr_Lisek Sep 8 @ 9:27 PM EDT

@DRich0696 Usually it means "they (did/didn't) turn in a bunch of assignments." No knowledge being assessed. #ankedchat

DRich0696 - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:27 PM EDT

Q5: What practices do we need in place for standards-referenced grading to be successful? #ankedchat

GroveEnglish Sep 8 @ 9:30 PM EDT

#ankedchat No one can accurately decipher the difference between a S who earns 19/20 and one that scores 18/20.

Q5: What practices do we need in place for standards-referenced grading to be successful? #ankedchat

BurtonHable Sep 8 @ 9:31 PM EDT

A5: Answering the 4Qs. What do we want Ss to know? How will we know they did? How will we respond when they do? Don’t? #ankedchat

PeaceLoveMHeine - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A5: I need mechanisms for formally recording their growth. #ankedchat

Mr_Lisek Sep 8 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A5: Rubrics w/common language related to the tasks students are completing. Lets Ss know exactly what is expected. #ankedchat

thinkteach Sep 8 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A5: Aligned lessons & assessment, multiple pathways to demonstrate mastery, and multiple attempts to do so. #ankedchat #joininglateasusual

DRich0696 - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:32 PM EDT

@PeaceLoveMHeine Because we are never done as Ts - when you think you're done you are really DONE! #ankedchat

PeaceLoveMHeine - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A5: And of course, TIME - gonna keep hammering this one - this way of teaching takes more time for Ts to do the work. #ankedchat

GroveEnglish Sep 8 @ 9:33 PM EDT

#ankedchat Convos can't center on grades or points. Language must shift entirely to LEARNING.

BurtonHable Sep 8 @ 9:33 PM EDT

I agree! Need ways to record and give feedback quickly that Ss and Ps can access easily. #ankedchat https://t.co/Qbz2Dtu2rt

@MeganCMoMo Sometimes we have to wait 5+ years to get a chance to "officially" adjust standards #roadblocks #ankedchat

PeaceLoveMHeine - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:36 PM EDT

Q6: How does/should competition play a role in grading? #ankedchat

DRich0696 - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:37 PM EDT

A6: Competition should not be a part of grading unless it includes competing against one's self and prior performance. #ankedchat

Mr_Lisek Sep 8 @ 9:37 PM EDT

A6: Ss should only compete to better what they've done earlier. Never should compare their learning to that of other Ss. #ankedchat

thinkteach Sep 8 @ 9:38 PM EDT

A6: Self-Competition (like trying to beat a PR in weightlifting) should motivate learning. Grades can detract from that. #ankedchat

DRich0696 - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:38 PM EDT

@Mr_Lisek NEVER! #ankedchat

PeaceLoveMHeine - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:38 PM EDT

A6: I've never used competition in grading, but I do in teaching - we play games all the time - I'm re-thinking that... #ankedchat

DRich0696 - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:40 PM EDT

@PeaceLoveMHeine Do you think it hinders learning? #ankedchat

Q7: How does all the work get done to transition to standards-referenced grading from traditional grading? #ankedchat

Mr_Lisek Sep 8 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A6.2: Ts often compete against each other in practice. Need 2 realize their style shouldn't rival their colleague. Work together. #ankedchat

DRich0696 - Moderator Sep 8 @ 9:43 PM EDT

A7: SRG is harder than traditional grading in many some ways and easier in other. PLCs are instrumental in this transition. #ankedchat

thinkteach Sep 8 @ 9:43 PM EDT

@MeganCMoMo It's tough. Comparing might be hardwired in our brain. We often describe things in relation to something similar. #ankedchat

Mr_Lisek Sep 8 @ 9:43 PM EDT

A7: Should be a collaborative effort between Ts and As. Often falls on the Ts to find out how. #ankedchat

BurtonHable Sep 8 @ 9:43 PM EDT

A7: Resetting 57 Infinite Campus assignments for 13 classes bc we can’t use a 4-point scale anymore #sarcasm #ankedchat
