Explains what is wrong with traditional and inconsistent grading and the serious problems it creates, and instead offers research and tools for a new method of grading for equity that can transform schools, students, and education. Includes real-life teacher examples and student input, specific grading practices, evidence of effectiveness, and reflection tools.

"Joe Feldman shows us how we can use grading to help students become the leaders of their own learning and lift the veil on how to succeed. . . . This must-have book will help teachers learn to implement improved, equity-focused grading for impact."
-Zaretta Hammond, Author of Culturally Responsive Teaching & The Brain Crack open the grading conversation

“research has found that once we put a score or a grade on an assignment, the student is less likely to review comments or learn from that grade (Butler & Nisan, 1986).” -Joe Feldman, Grading for Equity: What It Is, Why It Matters, and How It Can Transform Schools and Classrooms

“Rather than say, “In the real world you only get one chance,” perhaps our most truthful and most helpful message should be “In the real world, retakes are often available; you just might have to ask for them and put in some additional work.” -Joe Feldman, Grading for Equity: What It Is, Why It Matters, and How It Can Transform Schools and Classrooms
