Outcome-Based Grading: Because Your Gradebook Deserves a Makeover

Part of GETCA 2026
Friday 27 February 2026·8:00 pm

How can we provide High School English Language Arts (ELA) students meaningful feedback through our grading practices? Assessment expertise collides with High School ELA expertise to bring you this powerhouse session. We will explore how Outcome Based Assessment can be implemented while still assigning percentage grades. We will share ideas for starting small or overhauling your entire gradebook! The session will include how to break down existing rubrics into outcomes, assessment design and time for collaboration. Our examples will focus on High School ELA but the process can be applied to any course!
