“When we celebrate mistakes as learning opportunities, focus on the process of learning, acknowledge effort that leads to learning, give choices of next steps when writers encounter difficulty, and reflect on the work of learning our feedback supports a growth mindset (Dweck, 2015).”

“What can we do, then, to recognize that yes, grading and its traditions are still present, but so is the writer? Feedback, not grades, may just be the key to unlock a writer’s potential by developing the writer within and the writing along with it. Writing, after all, is an act of confidence (Shaughnessy, 1977, p. 85), and what can better shore up that confidence than effective feedback? Designs”

“If we think of grades as an opportunity to shine a light on what we value in the whole of writing and for the writer, we can design our grades based on our values. Personally, I value the work as much, if not more, than the product. I value the process of getting feedback and using it to grow and learn to meet our goals. I value risk taking and making intentional writing choices. I value reflecting on the learning process, all of the ups and downs, to hold onto new learning for future learning.”
