Grading systems often reward on-time task completion and penalize disorganization and bad behavior. Despite our best intentions, grades seem to reflect student compliance more than student learning and engagement. In the process, we inadvertently subvert the learning process. After careful research and years of experiences with grading as a teacher and a parent, Cathy Vatterott examines and debunks traditional practices and policies of grading in K–12 schools. She offers a new paradigm for standards-based grading that focuses on student mastery of content and gives concrete examples from elementary, middle, and high schools. Rethinking Grading will show all educators how standards-based grading can authentically reflect student progress and learning—and significantly improve both teaching and learning. Cathy Vatterott is an education professor and researcher at the University of Missouri-St. Louis, a former middle school teacher and principal, and a parent of a college graduate. She has learned from her workshops that "grading continues to be the most contentious part . . . conjuring up the most intense emotions and heated disagreements." Vatterott is also the author of the book Rethinking Homework: Best Practices That Support Diverse Needs.

Small schools due to a variety of reasons, are compelled to opt for multi-grade teaching in which learners of more than one grade are taught in one class. Resultantly, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the capacity of South African schools in the implementation of multi- grade teaching. The study followed a qualitative approach to evaluate the implementation of multi-grade teaching. A case study research design was followed with an interpretive paradigm to evaluate day-to-day offering of multi-grade teaching. The population in this study consisted of principals and teachers who were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through focus-group and face-to-face semi-structured interviews as well as document analysis. Kolb's experiential learning theory was used as a theoretical framework for this study to evaluate the offering of multi-grade teaching in case study schools. The thematic approach was used to analyse data. To ensure issues of ethical consideration, the researcher ensured that there is anonymity, confidentiality, informed consent, voluntary participation, participants' privacy, and safety. The study found that schools in Sekhukhune South Education District could not offer multi-grade teaching. This was mainly based on the lack of central policies on multi-grade teaching as well as inappropriate teacher development programmes. Insufficient human and financial resources were also identified as key hindrances in the implementation of multi-grade teaching. Resultantly, the study suggested that the serving teachers, their SMTs, and their Curriculum Advisors must be provided with in-service training on multi-grade teaching. On the other hand, teacher-training universities should have a compulsory module on multi-grade teaching. The study also recommended the establishment of a DoBE unit that solely focuses on matters related to multi-grade teaching. The study further recommended that the DoBE should develop central policies on multi-grade teaching. It was also recommended that the DoBE’s Post Provision Model and the National Norms and Standards for School Funding must be revised to cater for the needs of multi-grade schools. The study further proposed a new framework to engender collaboration amongst principals, parents, and Curriculum Advisors in school-based multi-grade policy formulation, advocacy, training, as well as monitoring, and support.

Inequality is a marked and persistent feature of education systems, both in the developed and the developing worlds. Major gaps in opportunity and in outcomes have become more critical than in the past, thanks to the knowledge economy and globalization. The pursuit of equity as a goal of public policy is examined in this book through a series of national case-studies. The book covers many different global contexts from the wealthiest to some of the poorest nations on earth. It therefore offers a broad range of different theoretical and methodological approaches, and brings together extensive international experience in equity policy.
