When I read the article, it reminded me of your approach to assessment; specifically the “It doesn’t matter when you learn it” part.

So, if I assessed mastery on 12 standards in one nine weeks, the school report would only show the average of those scores. I would much prefer a report that showed each standard assessed and the mastery of each individual standard. That way, a student can “fail” (I call it “Not there yet”) some standards, yet show Mastery or Good Understanding on others.

Yes, I have had students have better letter grades than I would have given once I have put my information into the school system. However, this seems to be the fault of the school system which is still archaically based on letters. If I could truly report the standards and the mastery level, skill assessment would be much more clear.
