In this episode of Teaching Takes, host Bryan Doppel is joined by Josh Eyler to explore the wide world of Alternative Grading! We hear how some faculty are assessing students in non-traditional ways, discuss the value of learning in the current climate of higher education, and even consider alternative grading as a means to combat student AI misuse.

We feature Takes from April McGinnis, Lillian Nave, and Jennifer Kurtz from Appalachian State Univerisity, as well as Emily Pitts Donahoe from the University of Mississippi!
