In May 2023, I ended the semester ready to explore how to improve the learning experience for students in my courses. I was pleased with their learning, but I felt there were missed opportunities to support learners’ wellbeing beyond traditional grading.

Enter, Specifications Grading.

On this site, I will share what I am learning by implementing Specifications Grading as a framework that values high standards and development in a way that emulates professional practice.
