Some advice given in this chapter is to avoid grading on a curve as well as giving students zeros. Zeros do not indicate anything aside from a day’s struggle for a student. Instead, students should be given the opportunity to make up work and build mastery. In addition, homework should not be graded as this is merely a formative assessment. Students do homework to work towards mastery, thus it is not complete work but only a step along the way. Students should be given the opportunity to work through homework then use assignments in an attempt to judge mastery.
