| Abstract | In this article, the author discusses the purpose of grades from a perspective based on the fundamental educational psychology assessment principle of validity--the validity of what learning is being assessed and the validity of the communication of that assessment to others. He believes most teachers fail to give grades to students that are as valid as they should be. Because grading is something that has been done to each of them during their many years as students, it is hard to change the invalid "grading" schema that has become embedded in their minds. Now, as educators often required to grade students, and because of this embedded schema, they often grade students in invalid ways similar to how they were graded. Inadequate education in valid assessment and grading principles and practices is a reason many teachers continue to perpetuate invalid grading practices with students. Since educational testing and assessment is a major content knowledge area in educational psychology, the issues regarding assessment and grading that he addresses in this article could well be addressed in an educational psychology course. If their preservice and in-service teachers are going to learn appropriate assessment and grading practices then educational psychologists need to provide the relevant information in their classes.
