| Abstract | Experience with the pass/fail system at the University of Alberta and a review of the literature has shown that (1) pass/fail does not seem to motivate the student to learn; (2) students do not use it as a vehicle to explore outside their major; and (3) students do fewer of the assigned readings and attend fewer classes in courses elected under pass-fail than they do with courses elected under the conventional grading system. Despite conclusive evidence, the author is reluctant to recommend abandoning nontraditional grading. The two reasons advanced are: it is too early in the innovational development to measure the real impact on the student, and nontraditional grading may do more to foster a lifetime of learning attitude.
