In this paper the authors discuss their experiences with ungrading at a small public university in the U.S. as well as a large public university in Germany. The courses described are Calculus 1, Mathematics for Liberal Arts, and courses for pre-service secondary teachers of mathematics. We outline and compare our approaches, discuss student performance and feedback and present some interesting patterns relating to gender.
