However, the impact of this session will be found when those with experience in Specs grading, Labor-based Grading, or in using grading contracts join us to add your knowledge and experience to the discussion.\r\n\r\nPlease see this slidedeck for other important links and research.  https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/5968r6sd","Link":["https:\/\/www.onlyconnects.wordpress.com","https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/5968r6sd","https:\/\/unrulr.com","https:\/\/spikeview.com"],"Audience":["High School","Middle School"],"Practice":"Student testimonials and teacher reflections form the basis for the background.  Current students will discuss their experiences.    \r\n\r\nDocuments, testimonials, and digital media will help develop background for teachers new to gradeless practices.","Presenter":["Garreth Heidt & Students"],"PresenterAffiliation":["Perkiomen Valley High School"],"PresenterEmail":["gheidt@pvsd.org"],"ScheduleSlotID":144,"ScheduleLocationID":30,"SubmitterID":736,"AdditionalComments":"This is one of two conversations I've proposed.  If they could be on the same day, that'd be great.  If not, I can swing that, too.","LiveChannel":null,"Hashtag":null,"VokleID":null,"RecordingURL":null,"ConferenceID":10}}
