for the Rock Hill Schools Assessment Conference 2016
July 20th & July 21st
Come to hear how Common Formative Assessments can improve your student achievement!
“Schools with the greatest improvements in student achievement consistently used common assessments.”
~Reeves 2004
“In other words, formative assessment, effectively implemented, can do as much or more to improve student achievement than any of the most powerful instructional interventions (such as) intensive reading instruction, one-on-one tutoring and the like.”
~Darling-Hammond & Bradsford
“Research suggests that, if done well, genuine assessment for learning can produce among the largest achievement gains ever reported for educational interventions.”
~Olson 2007
“Although it might be technically possible to encounter versions of formative assessment that have been externally imposed rather than emerging from the classroom, this would be really rare. Formative assessment that really pays off for students will be classroom formative assessment.”
~Popham 2008
