Dr. Berg said that many teachers using this type of grading are finding that students quickly figure out that homework supports their learning of the material, and attending class is not as onerous since they are not taken to task if they do not have their homework to turn in, so teachers are experiencing less student cheating and absences. Rubrics identify specific skills or knowledge that determines student mastery of a standard into equal grading levels. Many teachers recognize that traditional grading does not always reflect student achievement, but little concrete data show teachers where specific issues exist. The teachers compensate with extra credit, moving the curve, and other tricks to come up with a grade that reflects the knowledge their students show in class, or leaves some students hopelessly underserved by traditional grading with a high potential for failure.
