Webinars

The COVID-19 pandemic has challenged schools to question their assessment practices and grading policies. Are students retaining and applying the concepts and skills of the standards? What can be evidence of their learning? This edWebinar examines how schools can answer these questions and more.

Join us for a webinar that explores how assessment practices empower the whole child and the whole educator. Cassandra Erkens, Tom Schimmer, Katie White, and Nicole M. Dimich will engage in a lively discussion about feedback, grading, assessment design, and multitiered systems of support in the midst and aftermath of dual pandemics. Assessment at its best can build relationships and inspire hope and efficacy.

Assessment sits at the center of instructional decisions and multitiered systems of support that ensure student success. This webinar, featuring assessment expert Nicole Dimich, will provide guidance in how to design meaningful assessments and set up information that empowers teachers to be instructionally agile and students to be invested in their learning.

In this webinar, Tom will highlight seven critical competencies (critical thinking, collaborative thinking, creative thinking, communication, social competence, digital citizenship, and self-regulation) and the assessment practices and processes that make their authentic development possible. Nothing can be developed without assessment.

Whether you are a leader by title or by influence, this webinar will bring together ideas that make assessment transformations more possible and sustainable.

In order to answer the question “How will we know when students have learned it?”, PLCs need to utilize quality assessment practices.
