Effort Grades
What are effort grades? What is your stance on this topic?
Anxiety has an effect on how students perform on
assessments (Steinmayr et al., 2016). When students are given a grade for their
effort, they can see that they are being acknowledged for their work and how
hard they are trying. Effort grades help students continue to be determined and
work hard to learn their content. I believe that effort grades and content
grades should be used in a classroom. These grades should be weighted differently;
however, they are both important to student achievement.
