9 Assess and celebrate the processes of learning not the outcomes?
Do my success criteria simply describe a final product? Should they instead describe the thought processes, challenges and efforts that pupils ought to make? We record and report grades, assessment marks, etc. Should we instead report examples of challenges overcome, etc.?
