Shawn Cornally (@ThinkThankThunk and http://101studiostreet.com/wordpress/) shares about Standards Based Grading in mathematics: "It turns out that the way we grade students is about an order of magnitude more important than anyone previously thought.

Rethinking all of that is super mega fun, so come to Global Math Dept on Oct 16, and let's come up with some lessons that aren't boring."
