Is grading your least favorite part of the job? Do you dread conversations with students about why they got an B+ on their paper? Is it more important to you that students develop their skills rather than get an A? Do you wish you could reduce student stress over grades and grade inflation? With input from former students, Department of Theatre Professor Kirsten Pullen defines contract grading and explains how and why she uses it in all her classes.
