Formative Assessment Practices

Improve learning through strategies to help participants better understand the role of performance tasks and success criteria for learning targets, and formative assessment practices that advance student learning. Participants explore: multiple types of performance tasks and success criteria for four types of learning target; how students can use the success criteria to self assess, set learning goals, and progress monitor; and practical strategies teachers can use to formatively assess and collect evidence of student learning throughout instruction, in order to make in-the-moment adjustments and plan future lessons.
