In the spring of 2020, governors and education leaders across North America have declared a suspension of ANY negative grading - based on the inequities that learners face.
This has a lot of teachers asking where the incentive is for students to learn. With the traditional carrot and stick removed, is K-12 education dead?
Not at all! I argue here that NOW is the opportunity for an assessment revolution. NOW is the time to move to a model that rejects coercion and compliance and embraces one based on formative feedback and assessment for learning.
What is the purpose of education? Do we care more about validation or growth?
