“So many times, I leave professional development sessions understanding a need to change my teaching approach but with no concrete idea of what my solution should look like. Peg Grafwallner provides suggestions and examples I can immediately put to use as I work toward creating an environment that reintroduces the joy of learning while preserving the integrity of education. It provides the answers I’ve been looking for to move students forward in their education with an emphasis on learning rather than students just “redoing” challenging work to accumulate points or opting out of that work entirely.”
“This is an extraordinary book, research based, classroom perfected, and perfect for now. I love Peg’s not-yet approach, which de-emphasizes grading in favor of impactful feedback, intentional reflection, and much more. This approach, which she supports with useful templates and real-world success stories, will help all students reach their potential, overcoming obstacles along the way.”
