Faculty trained not to judge writing quality when grading

(THE COLLEGE FIX) — Earlier this year, American University invited an outside professor to teach its faculty how to pursue “antiracist ends” through writing assessments.

Asao Inoue of the University of Washington-Tacoma is known for advocating that students should be graded based on the “labor” they put into their work, not the “quality” of the finished product.

The training has now moved in-house, according to a faculty workshop taking place Thursday morning.
