As instructional approaches in the classroom evolve from looking at what students know, to how student can apply what they know it is critical that our reporting system aligns with these instructional practices. The traditional grading scale has a focus on what a student might have earned (points for completing homework, extra credit, points on tests, etc.). Or move to an equal interval scale PLUS a focus on performance assessments will allow us to measure and report on student learning as it relates to standards and success criterion not just an average of points earned, thus providing an accurate picture of student learning.
