Chapter 14 of Peter Liljedahl’s Building Thinking Classrooms focuses on how we can effectively grade students in a thinking classroom. Here, we will explore why it is imperative to redesign the traditional grading process while also learning how to transition from points based grading to standards based grading in a painless fashion. In addition, participants will be given a specially made Google Sheet that automates the outcomes based grading process the way Peter describes in his text.
