In a two-part episode series, we talk with Kevin Lin and Brett Wortzman from the University of Washington about alternative grading practices.

We dig into the philosophy of Kevin and Brett’s grading approach, how it can work in very large courses, and how to get buy-in from students on an unfamiliar system.
