Off the Mark

How Grades, Ratings, and Rankings Undermine Learning (But Don't Have To)

Beschreibung

Schooling has become less about learning and more about the scramble for good grades, high test scores, and spotless transcripts. No one is happy about this, least of all students. But what can be done? Off the Mark explains how we got into this predicament, why our reforms havenâ t worked, and how we can reorient our system to advance learning.
