PEREZ GARCIA, José  and  LOPEZ ORTEGA, María de los Ángeles. Factors that affect the grade that teachers assign to students. Horizontes Rev. Inv. Cs. Edu. [online]. 2022, vol.6, n.25, pp.1679-1690.  Epub Sep 30, 2022. ISSN 2616-7964.  https://doi.org/10.33996/revistahorizontes.v6i25.445.

The purpose of this article was to determine the evaluation practices that support the grade assigned by teachers to students and how valid and reliable is the information that supports the grade. Documentary analysis was used as a methodology to identify the specialized literature on the factors that influence the grade that teachers assign to students. Twenty-seven studies were analyzed and a predominance of practices not aligned with the study programs, grades based on a mixture of cognitive and non-cognitive factors and lack of training in evaluation were found. It is concluded that the reliability and validity of the grades assigned by teachers is questionable, it is necessary to strengthen the assessment literacy of teachers and school administrators, training in effective grading practices and to promote formative assessment.

Keywords : School grades; Learning assessment; Formative assessment; Literacy; Teachers.
