FIAE - Chapter 4 - Three Important Types of Assessment

I really enjoyed how this chapter explained and differentiated between the two types of grading rubrics. I also completely agreed with the author on going against a five-level tier because parents and students automatically associate each level with a letter grade. In my own classroom, I will probably use both rubrics depending on the class, grade, and assignments. I intend to converse with my students on what I think they should be graded on and what they think they should be grading on, and meet somewhere in the middle. That might not work as well with middle school students, but I always want to keep my students in the loop on how I grade, why I grade that way, and how they can receive the best grade possible.
