Assessing Learning in the Standards-Based Classroom Workshop
Assessment goes beyond mere points. Teachers meticulously gather information through diverse assessments, ensuring it aligns with academic standards. Backed by data, this approach empowers educators to tailor instruction and ignite student learning.
In this interactive two-day learning opportunity, the presenter explores how to ensure classroom assessments are not only based on standards but also on high-quality tools and processes that provide accurate information about learning related to these standards.
Participants will gain practical assessment tools that yield reliable information about student learning, which can inform their instructional practice.
Classroom teachers, instructional facilitators, curriculum coordinators, and directors of teaching and learning can discover how to apply these strategies and evidence-based practices to their own assessments.
