Active Learning Communities
Alternative Grading & Equitable Asssessment
This Learning Community grew out of our programming series on Ungrading in February 2023, which brought together 33 teaching faculty, tenure-track faculty, postdocs, and staff from across campus. Join us as we read, discuss, look at examples, share our work, and consider the grading practices we use in our classes! We will be holding regular meetings throughout Fall 2024. Sign up below to receive communications about the next meeting.
