This is Dr. Drew Lewis. He is a mathematician and education researcher. Last Fall, he organized a #RIOSLearningCommunity (with Dr. Lenahan) that explored alternative grading practices. This is what he said about it. #LetsLearnTogether
A photo of Drew. Text reads: "There's tons of different options for active learning and things. It's the exact same thing with assessment.

So it’s important to try to make sure people understand that there are all these options and try and help them figure out which one fits what they're trying to do with their students best."

Last year, Bekah led a #RIOSWorkingGroup. Vecina was created out of her working group. It's a website, which visualizes environmental & community info for neighborhood advocacy. It's a guide that helps families through: registering their kids in school, finding health services, etc.
