项目摘要

This project serves the national interest by helping faculty learn and adopt grading practices that promote student learning, enhance student motivation, increase equity, and enable more students to succeed in STEM. The Grading Conference is an annual virtual conference that provides a much-needed resource for instructors interested in improving their assessments. The purpose of the conference is to support instructors as they strive to challenge traditional grading practices that have been shown to hinder student learning and student growth as scholars. As awareness of, and interest in, these practices grow, more and more faculty need a supportive community to learn how to implement these grading practices and do so in ways that enhance student learning and improve student outcomes. Research has shown that one of the most effective methods for implementing changes in faculty practice is to do so within the context of a supportive community. A virtual conference will be held that will include a set of speakers who will provide insights on alternative grading and address questions and comments from participants. The project team will recruit faculty participants in the STEM fields of mathematics, biology, physics, and chemistry from a diverse set of institutions.The Grading Conference will bring together new and experienced practitioners of a variety of grading techniques (such as standards-based, specifications-based, and "ungrading") as the flagship event of an ongoing community of practice. This online synchronous conference allows faculty from across the country to come together with the intent of disseminating best practices and current research around grading and its connection to improving student learning. Three goals guide the project. First is to support grading reform to enhance student learning, motivation, equity, and success. Second is to build infrastructure to provide continued professional learning around the role of grading in student success. Third, and finally is to create a professional learning community that will support practitioners as they work to change their grading policies. The conference will be conducted over two days with two featured speakers presenting each day. Additional sessions will include panels, research presentations, and practitioner-oriented presentations. Small group sessions will be used to promote networking of faculty in categories such as geographic region, STEM discipline, interests in specific types of assessments, and level of experience. All sessions will be recorded and made publicly available on the conference website along with handouts and slides.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
该项目通过帮助教师学习和采用促进学生学习,增强学生动力,增加公平性,并使更多学生在STEM中取得成功的评分实践来服务于国家利益。评分会议是一个年度虚拟会议,为有兴趣改善评估的教师提供急需的资源。会议的目的是支持教师,因为他们努力挑战传统的评分做法,已被证明是阻碍学生学习和学生成长为学者。随着对这些做法的认识和兴趣的增长,越来越多的教师需要一个支持性的社区来学习如何实施这些评分做法,并以提高学生学习和提高学生成绩的方式来实施。研究表明,实施教师实践变革的最有效方法之一是在支持性社区的背景下这样做。将举行一次虚拟会议,其中将包括一组发言者,他们将提供关于替代评分的见解,并解决与会者的问题和意见。项目团队将从不同的机构招募数学、生物、物理和化学等STEM领域的教师参与者。评分会议将汇集各种评分技术(如基于标准、基于规范和“取消评分”)的新从业者和经验丰富的从业者,作为持续实践社区的旗舰活动。这个在线同步会议允许来自全国各地的教师聚集在一起,传播最佳实践和当前围绕评分及其与改善学生学习的联系的研究。三个目标指导着这个项目。首先是支持分级改革,以提高学生的学习、动力、公平和成功。其次是建立基础设施,围绕评分在学生成功中的作用提供持续的专业学习。第三,也是最后一点,是创建一个专业的学习社区,支持从业者改变他们的评分政策。会议将持续两天,每天有两名主讲人。额外的会议将包括小组讨论,研究报告,并以咨询师为导向的介绍。小组会议将用于促进教师在地理区域,STEM学科,特定类型评估的兴趣和经验水平等类别的网络。所有的会议都将被记录下来,并在会议网站上沿着讲义和幻灯片。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命,并被认为是值得支持的,通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估。
