Standards Based Grading
Traditional Grading System
Based on assessment methods (quizzes, tests, homework, projects, etc.). One grade/entry is given per assessment.
Assessments are based on a percentage system. Criteria for success may be unclear.
Use an uncertain mix of assessment, achievement, effort and behavior to determine the final grade. May use late penalties and extra credit.
Everything goes in the grade book - regardless of purpose.
Include every score, regardless of when it was collected. Assessments record the average - not the best - work.
Standards-Based Grading System
Based on learning goals and performance standards. One grade/entry is given per learning goal.
Standards are criterion or proficiency-based. Criteria and targets are made available to students ahead of time.
Measures achievement only OR separates achievement from effort/behavior. No penalties or extra credit given.
Selected assessments (tests, quizzes, projects, etc.) are used for grading purposes.
Emphasize the most recent evidence of learning when grading.
