Grading from the Top Down

Join me in taking a look at the portfolio system that I have employed in English 1010 specifically to look at how a transparent and flipped grading system can help students bridge the gap between where they are and where we would like them to be by encouraging growth and mastery in an environment where they feel comfortable and safe making mistakes as they master a new skill. Leveraging real, proven scientific techniques such as loss aversion, growth mindset, and autonomous ownership create an environment where students feel empowered to learn.
