Praise for this book

"Guskey gives us not only a masterful synthesis of what's known about grading, but also a powerful plea for educators to do battle with America's student-harmful grading practices. His rationale is clear, his arguments are persuasive, and his call to battle is almost irresistible." -- W. James Popham "Professor Emeritus, UCLA"
