Setting up Mastery-Based Grading in your Classroom
Megan's ESRN grading scale (based on Robert Talbert’s EMRN scale):
E: Excellent
Student’s submission goes beyond satisfactory requirements in a measurable way
I provide examples of what that could look like (including additional skills in a project, going deeper into a topic, etc - it depends on what the assessment and standards/outcomes are)
S: Satisfactory
Student’s submission meets the standards/requirements
Revision is optional
R: Revise
Some part of the submission doesn’t meet the requirements yet
Revision is required
N: Not Accessable
The submission can’t be assessed for some reason (it’s not submitted, it’s not shared correctly, it’s missing a section, etc)
Revision is required
