What happens when we stop focusing on grades and start focusing on learning? In this episode of Centering Centers, we explore the practice of ungrading in higher education. Our guests reflect on how traditional grading systems can undermine motivation and share insights into alternatives like specifications grading, feedback-centered approaches, and project-based learning. Along the way, they discuss the challenges and opportunities of shifting mindsets and systems toward more meaningful, learner-driven education.
