| Sumario: | The article reports on the possibility of substituting non-grading methods of evaluation for scores or grades in a college course without undermining the quality and quantity of learning. Problems that are connected with college teaching includes widespread cheating of students, students are neurotically fixated on grades, and tests are implemented as incentives rather than as an approach of diagnosis. It was however noted that the study has not gained support from the institution as a whole for a variation in the grading system. The students who were considered for the study continued to be graded in other classes in compliance with traditional grading. |
