ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This conversation talks about grades and how we use them in school. Alfie Kohn, a leading researcher in behaviorism and rewards has articles posted here and here. Our education system puts a lot of focus on grades and achievement, regardless of the research showing that they may not actually accomplish what we think they do.
So how do we deal with or talk about grades as parents without projecting our own feelings about our own achievement and intelligence onto our kids. We have some thoughts.
