Description
Summary:Writing in response to recent work by Kathleen Kryger, Griffin X. Zimmerman and Ellen C. Carillo, Asao B. Inoue offers an expanded and compassionate discussion of labor-based grading, a practice that involves negotiating a set of classroom agreements with all of the students in a course to determine how much labor will be expected of students and how it will be accounted for or identified to earn particular final course grades. Inoue focuses his exploration of labor-based grading by asking, "How can labor-based grading evolve so that it addresses the concerns around inequitable access to or expectations of labor that students with disabilities, neurodivergencies, illnesses or limited time in the semester may face?" The result is a thoughtful reexamination and rethinking of labor-based grading in writing courses.
