  8. STANDARDS-BASED LEARNING • In Standards-based grading, the main idea is that the grade is a measure of what students know or can do. It is not a measure of how well the students are obedient and it is not a measure of how much effort the students put into homework. • What changes will you see? You will see your student tracking their progress on learning goals and more formative assessments that provide information to the student and teacher about where they are in their learning. When looking at Home Access Center, you are going to see fewer grades.

  9. STUDENT SELF-MONITORING • Evaluate Knowledge using Benchmark Study Guides • Set Learning Goals • Student/Teacher Conference

  10. RESOURCES • Benchmark Study Guide • Textbook • Hands-On Activities and Investigations • Schoology
