Random idea germinating during #jsm2024 StatEd talks:
What if we scored student work like Olympic gymnastics, with a separate "difficulty" and "execution" score?
I feel like the standard "points off for some thing wrong" grading style discourages trying newer or more complex things, especially in coding.
I would love to see the student who *mostly* executes a deeper analysis get a better grade than one who *perfectly* excutes a very basic one.
Has anyone tried something like this? 🤔
