Get Past Points to Make Feedback Functional: Mastery Grading

Feedback Survey

This session is repeated on Sunday at 10:05. When lessons say "CCSS" & “growth mindset” but the gradebook disagrees, students follow the grade. How can teachers put the focus on the learning? I will share a system of learning targets, rubrics, assessments, and progress monitoring that aligns with CPM Core Connections Algebra pacing and spaced practice to provide students with multiple opportunities to show mastery.
