I teamed up with Jesse Wilcox (former science teacher and current science education professor) to write an article for NSTA’s Science Scope.

Standards-based grading (SBG) is an alternative approach to grading that uses standards, such as the NGSS, to communicate what students have learned. While SBG has increased in popularity in the last decade, questions still remain regarding what constitutes SBG and how to effectively implement it in science classrooms. Our article seeks to illustrate three commonly agreed-on core ideas for SBG and provide examples for middle school science teachers in how they might implement SBG using the NGSS.
