TREC’s April Webinar will explore topics of equitable grading. The webinar will include student perspectives around equitable grading, what equitable grading is, and how three teachers have implemented this work in their own classrooms. We will also explore what you can do in your classroom to make grading more equitable. Be prepared to participate in breakout rooms to discuss equitable grading.
Sharing successes and implementing equitable grading will be discussed between three TREC Teacher Leaders: Joni Lightcap, Jaime Camero and Justin Powell.
Through our partnership with Cradle to Career, anchored at United Way of Tucson we will be able to raffle the Grading for Equity book by John Feldman as part of our joint efforts to improve equity in math
