EmpowerED Workshop: Rubrics and Equity-based Grading
This hour-long workshop will introduce participants to the principles of equity-based grading and the use of rubrics to promote fair and transparent assessment at the college and university level. Educators will explore how to design rubrics that align with learning goals while reducing bias and promoting student success across diverse backgrounds. Through hands-on activities and discussions, participants will gain practical tools for implementing grading practices that recognize student effort, growth, and diverse ways of demonstrating knowledge.
