diligently.2.4. Standardized and iterative formative assessmentsIn this category, alternative grading approaches are applied for formative assessments orassessment for learning [13] through standardized and iterative feedback. In the literature,standardization approaches include specifications grading [14] and standards-based grading [2],which, in our view, involve an explicit mapping between learning outcomes and assessmentresults. Such standardization has also been commented on as an essential element forcompetency-based education [25]. Generally, the literature has reported positive learning effectsin various course contexts such as mathematics [26], [27], chemistry laboratory courses [28], andsoftware projects [29]. Standardization can also

MATH 140 (4 contact hours) is an important buildingblock in the education of any professional who uses quantitative analysis and includes standardintroductory topics in differential calculus, integral calculus and their applications. PHYS 211 (5contact hours) is a calculus-based introduction to classical mechanics, and laboratory exercisesare an integral part of this course. PHYS 211 covers the following topics: kinematics, dynamics,laws of conservation, and their applications. Moreover, both MATH
