Is school without grades the solution?
Just today we dealt with the case relating to one teacher who claims his method does not include a numerical evaluation.
“Judgment is a burden. I can assure you that my students are definitely happier in class. An emotion that allows us to work better and be more productive”, these are his words. Here’s his method: “In class there are questions or tests. Except that at the end my students do not receive a numerical evaluation as we usually know them, but an evaluation on cognitive achievement”.
“I use a table that is precisely defined by the construction method. There are various parameters: whether it is possible to make connections between the historical fact and the present for example. Or remember some previous historical facts. I put an X every time they reach this goal. But it is a method that changes depending on the class. In the first classes at the end of each term we use these tables. In the latter, however, we activate a formative evaluation. In this way, students self-evaluate themselves.”
