This episode delves into the age old question every teacher, no matter his or her level of experience, has grappled with at one time or another, “Should I grade this assignment or not?” T&T not only define what is truly meant by “graded” but also outline three categories that any activity or assignment fall into which determine its ultimate purpose in the unit. They also discuss the “dark side of grading” and the potential harm that can be done if not done properly.
