Reply To: Lesson 3.2: What Video Games Can Teach Us about Grading? – Discussion

[Terry Hill]

I found this to be very thought-provoking. I am already trying to come up with ways to make my class have the same “stars” that are found in video games to track progress. I started doing this last year, but only by looking at the students overall grade-level growth (as determined by a computer assessment program–IXL) from the beginning of the year until the end of the year. I like the idea of seeing it applied to each individual learning goal. Now I just have to figure out how to do that.
