Feldman, Klamm, and Corwin challenge our inherited system of grading that is all too often complex, high-stakes, compliance-driven, and whose benefits are disproportionately weighted in favor of advantaged students.  In our faculty group, we will together explore Grading for Equity and discuss the author's arguments for an alternative grading system, one that promotes greater equity and pivots back to student learning. There will be opportunities to reflect, share, and provide/receive feedback on our own current grading and assessment practices.

Facilitated by: Jeremiah Hower
Associate Teaching Professor, Math and Statistical Sciences


Theme(s): Inclusive and Learning Centered Teaching

Statement of Free Expression

FIU endorses the Florida Board of Governors' Statement of Free Expression to support and encourage full and open discourse and the robust exchange of ideas and perspectives on our campuses. In addition to supporting this legal right, we view this as an integral part of our ability to deliver a high-quality academic experience for our students, engage in meaningful and productive research, and provide valuable public service. This includes fostering civil and open dialogue in support of critical thinking in and out of the classroom, including events hosted by the university.
