Our grading philosophy
Our grading philosophy
The goal of professional development experience is to grow. Some assignments in this course may be challenging. Ultimately, though, our students benefit most when you are successful, and we're here to help you!
We are using non-graded assignments in this course that use detailed rubrics. There are no points or grades in this course.
You will need to earn a completion on all assignments to successfully complete this course and earn a digital badge.
If you do not earn a completion upon your first submission, we will leave you feedback which you are encouraged to apply and resubmit the assignment.
How your assignments will be graded
How your assignments will be graded
For each assignment, we recommend that you review the rubric before completing it and then again before submitting it to ensure you've addressed all the required criteria.
You submit an assignment by the due date. (If you can't make a due date, contact us in advance so we can agree upon an extension.)
We will review your submission against the rubric criteria and mark the assignment as Complete or Incomplete (with feedback) in the Grades area.
If an assignment is incomplete, that simply means you aren't quite there yet (but you'll get there!). Just review our feedback, revise your work, and resubmit the assignment. We wish we could change the "Incomplete" language in Canvas to "Not Yet," but, unfortunately, that's not an option. We hope you will mentally apply "Not Yet" to your experience, should you receive an "Incomplete" for an assignment. :)
If your work is submitted on time, we'll make every effort to review and comment on the work within 72 hours. We also encourage you to schedule a Zoom meeting with us if you would like to discuss your revisions.

Allow yourself the time and space you need to do your best work.
