Alternative Grading Approaches

Explore six distinct alternative grading frameworks—including specifications, standards-based, labor-based, and contract grading—designed to make course assessment more meaningful, equitable, and transparent. Over six one-hour meetings, we will discover how alternative grading models directly mitigate AI misuse while satisfying Title II compliance by focusing squarely on measurable learning outcomes. Supported by light pre-work and discipline-specific examples, participants will engage in hands-on drafting to redesign their own course assignments week by week. The program concludes with a collaborative wrap-up session, positioning faculty to fully scale your redesigned courses in the upcoming optional .

Sessions stand alone, so come to one or all seven. Registration is required.

Alternate Mondays at 3:00-4:00pm in Fernald Hall. In-Person.
