Webinar: Does "Equitable" Grading Lower Expectations for Students?

ecording of our September 10 webinar Over the last several years, so-called “equitable” grading reforms have generated controversy in many of the school districts across the country that have adopted them. Although their advocates claimed that policies like “no zeros” for assignments, eliminating late penalties, and allowing unlimited retakes can make classrooms more equitable, critics argued that they effectively codify lower expectations and ultimately harm student learning. On September 10 at 12:00 p.m. ET, The Fordham Institute and TNTP hosted a webinar to explore the findings from our new study: “Equitable” grading through the eyes of teachers. Following a brief presentation by Fordham’s David Griffith, New York Times columnist Jessica Grose moderated a panel discussion and Q&A.
