Liberated Learning: a view of what ungrading could deliver

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The enhancement ensuing when educators free themselves and students from devoting effort to graded coursework is summarised. General neglect of the closing stage in fully autonomous learning - namely self-evaluation to self-determined criteria - is regretted. The features and external evaluation of a historical scheme are reviewed and advanced as a model that could well be taken forward by ungrading practitioners.
