Description: STOCK PHOTOS ONLY No Grades + No Homework = Better Learning WHAT SHOULD WE DO IF TRADITIONAL FEATURES OF SCHOOLING CAUSE OUR KIDS TO LOSE INTEREST IN LEARNING? Example 1: Research consistently finds that giving students letter or number grades leads them to think less deeply, avoid challenging tasks, and become less enthusiastic about whatever they're learning. That's true for those who get A's as well as D's - and it isn't due to how students are graded; the problem is with grading itself. No wonder the best schools provide feedback without using traditional report cards. Example 2: Homework not only proves frustrating for kids (and their families) but also turns learning into a chore. At the same time, claims that homework enhances understanding or promotes better work habits are contradicted by both research and experience. It's all pain and no gain - so why are children still forced to work a "second shift" after having spent all day in school? In two entertaining and thought-provoking lectures, Alfie Kohn makes a compelling case that grades and homework are counterproductive. He argues that abandoning them in favor of more useful educational strategies is not only a realistic possibility but a change that's long overdue. Alfie Kohn writes and speaks widely on education, parenting, and human behavior.
