Subject: Survey: Approaches to Grading in Language Education

 
Calling all language educators! You are invited to participate in this survey
study: ‘Approaches to Grading in Language Education: Teacher Perspectives.’

In this survey, you will be asked to share your perspectives on and
experiences with engaging and assessing student learning (i.e., the act of
grading or marking, experiences with ungrading, other alternative approaches
to grading and marking). Upon completion of the survey, you will be entered
into a draw for one of six (6) $25 gift cards to Powell's Books. You will also
receive a copy of your responses post-submission.

Definitions:
- Grading refers to the purposeful act of using grades or marks to assess
student learning in language education
- Ungrading refers to the purposeful act of going gradeless (Blum, 2020) when
assessing student learning in foreign language education
- The term alternative approaches to grading refers to the purposeful act of
moving away from using grades or marks, but not necessarily going gradeless
when assessing student learning in language education.
 
Your participation in this study is completely voluntary. There are no
foreseeable risks associated with this project. However, if you feel
uncomfortable answering any questions, you can withdraw from the questionnaire
at any point or choose not to respond to optional questions. You will not
benefit directly from participating in this study. The only cost to you is
your time. Your questionnaire responses will be kept strictly confidential and
data from this research will be anonymized. Your information will also be
coded and anonymized. Non-identifiable data will be kept in a password
protected cloud folder for future research. If you have questions at any time
about the questionnaire or the procedures, you may contact Janice McGregor by
email at jmcgregor at arizona.edu.

Compensation for participation in a research study is considered taxable
income for you. If your compensation for this research study or a combination
of research studies is $600 or more in a calendar year (January to December),
you will receive an IRS Form 1099 to report on your taxes. For any
compensation or reimbursement you receive, we are required to obtain
identifiable information such as your name and address for financial
compliance purposes. The information that you provide in the study will be
handled confidentially. However, there may be circumstances where this
information must be released or shared as required by law.

The University of Arizona Institutional Review Board may review the research
records for monitoring purposes. For questions about your rights as a
participant in this study or to discuss other study-related concerns or
complaints with someone who is not part of the research team, you may contact
the Human Subjects Protection Program Director at 520-626-8630 or online at
