Upgrading Grading Practices.
Ratzlaff, Harold C.
Improving College and University Teaching, v28 n2 p81-84 Spr 1980

It is suggested that the fifth approach, which takes into account the general ability level of the class and applies predetermined percentages to determine the number of students receiving each grade, is the most rational approach.
