Do you find grading emotionally difficult? Do you procrastinate about getting started? Does it occupy your thoughts and make it difficult to do other work? You are not alone. In this track I take a blog post I read about this kind of emotional toll and suggest ways you might approach the work to minimize anxiety. This is where I explain more about what I mean by grading out from average (which I've mentioned in other posts).This track was first published as a blog post on my website in April 2015. It has been edited since then. The audio version was recorded in November 2021.Read the post here: https://jovanevery.co.uk/emotional-toll-grading/For more content like this, sign up to the monthly newsletter: jovanevery.co.uk/newsletterFollow me on Twitter: twitter.com/JoVanEveryFind my Facebook Page here: facebook.com/JoVEAcademicCareerCoachJoin the Academic Writing Studio: academicwritingstudio.co.uk
