This presentation by David Grossman emphasizes the differences between traditional gradebooks and standards-based gradebooks (SBG). Traditional systems assign one score per assignment, while SBG integrates multiple standards per assignment, requiring more complex data management. It highlights the increased effort for teachers in scoring and creating assignments and the necessity of presenting detailed information to various stakeholders. The presentation also addresses the complexities of calculating end-of-term standards and letter grades, emphasizing the importance of aligning with district and state standards.
