Discussion Topic

Students should answer the following prompts:

“The issue of how to evaluate assessment information and report it in equitable ways will remain unresolved until educators are able to devote time and energy to re-assessing their current grading policies with multilingual learners in mind” (Classroom Assessment in Multiple Languages, p. 168).

The module materials on evaluating and reporting assessment information highlight the narrowness of current grading strategies as the primary means of reporting assessment data on student learning. This discussion is an open forum for sharing the questions and innovations you may have to offer around reporting assessment data beyond grading. If you feel like you have more questions than ideas, this discussion is a space to–as the quote above suggests–re-assess your current grading policies.

Draw on two or three ideas from the module materials that could reshape how you report assessment data, with multilingual learners in mind.
