We will explore two alternatives to traditional percentage-based grading schemes: standards-based grading and specifications-based grading. Both aim to provide clear measures of student progress that are more directly tied to learning objectives, and to give students ample opportunity to revise work in response to feedback. We will discuss the benefits and trade-offs of each approach, as well as some practical tips based on the experiences of several instructors implementing these methods in a wide variety of courses at the University of Kentucky.
