Hey all, here is my report (THREAD) about my first #Ungrading semester, part 2 (pt. 1 can be found here: threadreaderapp.com/thread/1449462ā€¦) #ContractGrading #Pedagogy #DigPed #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter 1/
The biggest takeaway from this semester how easy it felt. Not ease of work--there was work, but how it helped conversations about student writing, which is literally my job, easier. #Ungrading #AcademicTwitter 2/

UNGRADING report! Halfway through my first ungraded semester (comp 1) and I find Iā€™m saying the same things when people ask how itā€™s going: 1/18 #Ungrading #ContractGrading #Pedagogy #DigPed #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter
My students report feeling ā€œrelievedā€ they donā€™t have to worry about grades, and I feel relieved, too: as I mentioned to a colleague, I feel more ā€œsettled in my soulā€ about how much freer I am to focus on giving constructive feedback. 2/18
Responding to work has been easier and quicker-- in the past, a not insignificant amount of time was given over to dithering abt letters and numbers (is this an A? Is this a B?--Thank god we donā€™t have pluses and minuses). 3/18
