PEAKS Training Tools - Video #1
Why are assessments important to students?
New PEAKS Training Tools
This year we thought we would try something a little different in providing parents/teachers training on the Performance Evaluation for Alaska Schools - PEAKS. We compiled a series of informative videos about testing that you can watch from the convenience of your home. If you have questions or wish to have more information, your advisory teacher is available and we encourage you to reach out to them at any time.
A big thank you to our Assistant Principal, Kim Bergey, for putting these videos together!
This first video is just over 8 minutes and aims to help parents understand:
- The different types of assessments and their uses
- Why assessments are important
- Why it is important to practice test-taking skills
This is the first video with more to come in the next weeks!
