Assess, Reflect, Grow
Advance your skills in designing and implementing assessments and analyzing student work.
Using relevant assessment data from your own classroom, you will think deeply about what students learned and did not learn, and what feedback is useful for fostering student growth. In collaboration with other educators you will reflect on student learning, identifying what you need to do better or differently to ensure that all students learn. Above and beyond these activities, you can elect to do additional exploration of the research as it informs and improves your practice. You may also choose to participate in an additional clinical coaching cycle with conferencing and an observation to support further improvement and application.
