Views: Why Grading Is Part of My Job - Inside Higher Ed - 3 views

  • Grades serve no pedagogical function at all. (Detailed feedback does, but that's an entirely different matter.) Grading is about nothing more than efficiently communicating to other institutions the level of learning we, the teachers, estimate (and it is only an estimation) each student gained. Unfortunately, students not only want to know about the content of that communication (understandably enough) but, for many, maximizing the grade (rather than the learning itself) has become their primary goal in taking courses. If we had no grades, then students' own personal sense of learning would be all that they got out of taking courses, and they would focus on that instead. (And it would make courses a much more interesting and productive place to be.)

Masters degrees don't produce better teachers - Page 2 - Baltimore Sun - 15 views

shared by Brendan Murphy on 15 May 11 - No Cached
  • Because their primary motivation is to preserve their teaching license and advance up the salary ladder, busy teachers often pursue the fastest, cheapest and most accessible path to earn these degrees, and not necessarily the education that might lead to improved student outcomes.

      So what you are saying is if teachers take graduate courses in an effort to improve themselves they might actually do some good.

    It's always interesting to me how many people in education, once they start waking up to the big shifts that are afoot, immediately jump to the "ok, so how do we change our schools?" question without addressing the "How do we change ourselves?" question first.
