David Clark discusses using alternative grading practices to foster student learning on episode 511 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

-David Clark
Most of us are used to giving feedback in some way, but making it helpful is the tough part.
-David Clark
A reassessment always needs some reflective parts, some metacognition, because that’s part of the feedback loop.
-David Clark
People aren’t going to remember everything that they’ve learned in our classes for all time.
-David Clark
As soon as there’s a grade assigned, students tend to lose the intrinsic motivation they might have to learn these things and focus entirely on that extrinsic grade aspect.
