LEARNING TARGETS
The learning targets in Schoology are the key concepts you will learn during these courses. Your progress on these targets will be monitored and tracked on the Schoology Portal. My goal is to support your growth toward mastery of all learning targets, which will be used to determine your grade.
MASTERY LEARNING & GRADING
The student's grade is determined by the level of growth towards mastery of the learning targets in the course taken as a whole. The student level in each learning target is the more comprehensive evidence of learning.
