We hope 2021 welcomes you with optimism, resolve and human connection! By the time you're hearing this, you might have tasks to assess and grade. Don't grade anything until you've listened to this! Gerardo sat down with Natalie Vardabasso of the #Educrush podcast a while back to discuss an important challenge faced by all teachers: feedback, grading, and antiracism. In it, we explore the intersections of those important aspects of effective classroom practice as we prepare for a new semester. Natalie's work and this episode are essential for teachers who hope to remix their grading and feedback practices for student success and empowerment. Natalie shares her insights on feedback, grading, and growth rooted in relationships. This episode is a crucial listen if you are a teacher who is weary of the grading rat-race. Enjoy!
