In this series of three sessions we will look at the high impact assessment practices in the thinking classroom framework. 

  1. Evaluate what you Value: In this session we will explore assessment practices that have been shown to radically shape students' behaviours in the thinking classroom. Participants will leave with a template that can be used to assess a wide range of competencies and processes.
  2. Formative Assessment: In this session we will explore a type of formative assessment that is done by students for students and has been shown to drastically increase student performance on summative assessment.
  3. Summative Assessment: In this session we will explore several contemporary grading practices including outcomes-based assessment and triangulation of data. The main focus of this session is to learn how to do this practically, efficiently, and effectively.
