Overview
To create student-centered schools, it may be necessary to rethink traditional grading models. Student-centered, formative assessments allow for students to demonstrate their knowledge through a variety of methods that are aligned with clear outcomes. By providing proactive, targeted support and authentic feedback, educators can support this shift to promote assessment that actually reflects student levels and enhances feedback loops. In this workshop, participants will examine ways of doing this work and identify how to bring it into their own reality.
