“effective” practice is considered to be one that supports and better preparesstudents, especially those designated as URM, to score higher on these “objective” measures[11]–[14]. Less dialogue has invited instructors and administrators within higher education torethink whether these instruments, the measures themselves, may be imperfect and biased. Whilegrades have a strong place in the logistics and culture of higher education in the United states(see Appendix A and B for information on American grading practices), now is the time toconsider their flaws and limitations, as well as explore new grading practices that may reducetheir inequitable impact on students who are already marginalized in STEM disciplines.In this paper, I argue that the very
