Hey there, secondary teachers! Tired of the love-hate relationship that comes with grading and marking?

In this week's episode, we're going to be talking about throwing out grades and looking at it a little bit differently. We'll be discussing how to have students do self-reported grades, and so they are taking ownership of their grades and it's off of you. This method is a great opportunity for your students to learn how to self-assess their work, and it increased my connection with students because we were able to have conferences.

Listen to find out how you can make the shift from teacher-centered to student-centered marking in your classroom.
