Best Practices for Grading Objectively, Effectively, and Efficiently
The responsibilities of all instructors includes grading student work to quantify progress of students' learning. Yet grading objectively involves numerous important considerations and strategies, many of which instructors are often not aware or have not sufficiently reflected upon. When grading for any course, an instructor should first reflect on their 'grading philosophy'. What is it, and how does your philosophy compare to instructors in other courses and departments... and why should that matter? How can instructors ensure consistency, fairness, and objectivity across students and different types of assessments, and just as importantly, how will they remain efficient when grading large numbers of assignments, or across multiple sections?

An important goal of any mentoring relationship is helping the mentee become independent; yet, defining what an independent mentee knows and can do is often not articulated by the mentor or the mentee. Defining what independence looks like and developing the skills to foster that independence are important to becoming an effective mentor. Defining independence becomes increasingly complex in the context of a larger research team.
