TITLE Assessment in Math and Science: What's the Point? Workshop 3. Is This Going To Count?: Embedded Assessment

LENGTH 00:01:20
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION Assessment does not compete for valuable teaching time; it is teaching time. This workshop shows how embedding assessment into everyday curriculum turns performance tasks into learning activities. Well-designed assessment allows teachers to shape subsequent instruction according to what their students have and have not understood. Content Guide: Monica Neagoy.
