UNGRADING?  Sounds more like unteaching. Why this professor no longer grades her students’ work – and wishes she had stopped sooner

Second, I was concerned with equity. For almost 10 years I have been studying inclusive pedagogy, which focuses on ensuring that all students have the resources they need to learn. My studies confirmed my sense that sometimes what I was really grading was a student’s background. Students with educational privilege came into my classroom already prepared to write A or B papers, while others often had not had the instruction that would enable them to do so. The 14 weeks they spent in my class could not make up for the years of educational privilege their peers had enjoyed.

Correct me if I’m wrong but a teacher’s job is to give students “the instruction that would enable them” to write A or B papers.
