Tuning Up Classroom Assessments
How confident are you that your current assessments are tightly aligned with the new Common Core State Standards?
How confident are you that your current assessments are rigorous enough to assess students at the appropriate depth of knowledge?
How confident are you that your current assessments are of high quality and produce valid results?
This 2 -day workshop will provide background knowledge to ensure assessments are aligned to the Common Core and guide participants through a process of analyzing and modifying current assessments being used in their grade, course, building and/or district.
Participants will need to bring a current assessment with them, printed out on single-sided sheets of paper.
This workshop is great for teams of teachers using common or interim assessments within a PLC.
