In this episode of the podcast, you'll hear four 8th grade students explain why they prefer the traditional models of assessment (featuring letter grades and percentages) over the newer forms of standards-based grading (featuring proficiency scales on report cards, for example).

Although I don't agree with everything these students articulate, they do a wonderful job of explaining their points of view. Whether you're a student, parent, or educator, you'll find this content interesting!
