Assessment Philosophy

Monday, March 25, 2013

Assessment is best accomplished when conducted over a period of time that

allows documentation of growth.

Monday, March 25, 2013

Rich, engaging, authentic learning can’t be measured by multiple choice tests.

Monday, March 25, 2013

Large class sizes make it challenging to engage in one-on-one conversation with

students frequently enough.

Monday, March 25, 2013

Evidence of student thinking during the learning process can be hard to

document with traditional tools.

Monday, March 25, 2013

Collecting journals, notecards, post-its, quizzes, projects, etc. can create a

logistical challenge!

Monday, March 25, 2013

Using tools that allow documentation over time provide insight for

instruction.
