  • Category: Workshop
  • Region: GTA
  • Topic: Assessment and Evaluation
  • Grades: Intermediate (grades 7-10), Junior (grades 4-6), Primary (grades 1-3), Senior (grades 11-12)
Join us for a thought-provoking workshop in which we identify fundamental elements of formative assessment and contrast them with elements of summative judgment. Rick Wormeli will emphasize how clear and consistent evidence over time, and the use of effective rubrics, can help teachers figure out:

  • what’s important to teach;
  • how to give descriptive feedback;
  • why it is important to correlate assessments to objectives;
  • how to apply dozens of formative assessment techniques; and
  • how to design effective rubrics that identify what is most important.

Don’t miss this insightful workshop to enhance your assessment practice.
