Description: As "teachers are learning to place performance and demonstration at the heart of their assessment repertoire they have come to see that assessment and evaluation are integral to the learning process, not just a means to generate marks for report cards. Grading, however, has remained largely untouched by the new way that data on student progress are generated.What is needed is a set of guiding principles which will clearly indicate how the grading task can be aligned to the current, progressive philosophy of assessment and evaluation."
