Grading Smarter, Not Harder
LISD Professional Development Center
Learn How to Grade Smarter, Not Harder!
Teams of educators across the state will read and discuss Myron Dueck's book, Grading Smarter, not Harder: Assessment Strategies that Motivate Kids and Help Them Learn.
The book is brimming with reproducible forms, templates, and real-life examples of grading solutions developed to allow students every opportunity to demonstrate their learning. Written with abundant humor and heart, this book is a must-read for all teachers who want their grades to contribute to, rather than hinder, their students’ success.
