As you're putting plans together for courses in Fall 2025 and beyond, what ideas do you have about your grading schemes? Have you considered "ungrading," contract grading, or any other alternatives to traditional A-E letter grades to assess student learning? 

This conversation will present several models for grading practices that break the focus away from point or letter values, and instead focus on student growth and development of learning and content mastery over time. 

All are welcome to participate. If you've tried any type of ungrading or contract grading yourself, please share what you did and how it went. If you're considering it, share your initial ideas and get feedback on how to implement them successfully. If you've never considered it, share why and how you get the most value out of the system you use now. We can all learn from one another's experiences. 

This session will be virtual via Teams, to allow participation from wherever you may be in the world before the semester begins.
