Josh Eyler helps us cultivate hope and action beyond grades on episode 534 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Teachers, instructors, educators at all levels can really work with students to find elements of what we are teaching that those students find individually interesting.

We can help them learn how to ask questions that are meaningful to them, how to really dig in and find ways that the content becomes meaningful to who they are as people.

We’re in another period of significant grading reform right now, fueled, I believe, by mass communication and social media. People are now able to connect in ways that in previous eras of grading reform, they were not able to.
