A5: By inviting them to share their goals beyond a grade. Highlight the importance of learning outcomes. “Choose Your Adventure” assignments where they tell me what they want to do & how to assess it. It helps them better understand how to design learning for themselves. #UngradingChat #Slowchatting

Q1: A few, but one that sticks out was when I saw a pattern of students putting “doing it right” (evidenced by grades) over embracing the process (learning). I’m a grad faculty member so my goal is to develop critical thinkers. With no grades we can focus on learning. #UngradingChat #SlowChatting

I don't know that there was one moment I knew I had to shift my grading practices. I came into teaching when writing portfolios were on the rise. Portfolios can create so much ungraded space for revision, rethinking, and invention. It shaped everything about my teaching #SlowChatting #UngradingChat
