The Teacher's Gradebook: Strategies for Student Success

By Barry Raebeck

In The Teacher's Gradebook, Barry Raebeck, a practicing secondary school English teacher, shares the grading strategies that he uses so successfully with his own students. Ample discussion is given to not only grading techniques, but also to other important issues surrounding the philosophy and ethics of grading. These include test construction, rubric creation, "grade-friendly" projects, assessment without grades, and cultivating student ownership of the grading process. Using these strategies can bolster student interest and achievement in the classroom, and can dispel the all-too-familiar behavioral and attention problems. Written for teachers by a teacher, this concise, straightforward, and practical book will help your own gradebook look quite differently.
