N1  - ABSTRACTS:  The task of grading students presents difficult issues for schools, particularly when it comes to assigning fair and meaningful grades to students with disabilities who attend general education classes. The authors have conducted extensive research on strategies for improving the accuracy, fairness, and meaningfulness of grades for students with disabilities. They emphasize the importance of building awareness of the purposes of grades, and they include a survey used to assess the perceptions of students, parents, and teachers about the role of grades. They also include a list of grading adaptations that research supports as effective.
