    Episode 148: How to Help Students Focus on Learning, Not Grades

    Often, our students measure learning not by skills gained or new ways of looking at content, but by the grades earned. We have talked about what grades mean in college and that grades should not define students’ identities, but we know they do. So, as teachers, what can we do to help our students focus on learning and growing, rather than on their GPA? Join Dinur and Adam as we discuss this question!
