Ungrade Upgrade with Ryan Kough
Description
Today’s guest is Ryan Kough, a neurodivergent artist and design educator who focuses on participatory community-driven design initiatives. She is an avid ungrading advocate and in this discussion, she and Diana share their experiences and reasons why they believe ungrading is an amazing framework for a diverse group of learners.
The two discuss the magic of student agency, true experiential learning and facilitating opportunities that shape the students and the educators who participate. Ryan shares the ways in which community-engaged learning and ungrading can be interwoven. You’ll hear how Ryan establishes a final grade and how she handles fair work share amongst a group, sharing the practical application of shifting away from classroom control and breaking down hierarchical structures to ensure all voices know they have equal merit.
I'm all about interesting projects with interesting people!
