Creating a Culture for Teaching and Learning
Align, Assess, Achieve II
DVD with Facilitator Guide
by Measured Progress and Align, Assess, Achieve
Formative Assessment, Assessment for Learning, or Informative Assessment—no matter what you call it—when practiced, increases student learning!
Embedding sound assessment practices into instruction lets teachers and students know what learning is taking place and clears misconceptions. Teachers can then make adjustments so that students achieve targeted goals.
But, the question still remains, “How do I make it happen in my classroom”?
Measured Progress teamed up with Align, Assess, Achieve to produce Creating a Culture for Teaching and Learning, a DVD that shows through first-hand experiences what it takes to create a positive culture for teaching and learning. The DVD stimulates discussions about what works in real classrooms with real students—at every grade level and content area.
Research shows that assessment cannot be separated from instruction. Creating a Culture for Teaching and Learning uses the voices of students, teachers, and administrators to highlight examples of successful implementation.
- Learn how teachers took the first steps toward incorporating assessment for learning into their kindergarten through Advanced Placement English classrooms.
- Hear how teachers tailored assessment for learning to meet the individual needs of their students.
- See how specific classroom journeys improved student engagement, student ownership of learning, and ultimately, student achievement.
Creating a Culture for Teaching and Learning uncovers the practices of:
- Aligning Standards and Targets
- Enduring questions
- Learning targets
- Assessing for Understanding
- Formative assessment
- Feedback (peer and teacher)
- Self-reflection
- Achieving Success
- Flexible grouping
- Sound grading practice
Creating a Culture for Teaching and Learning will help all educators as they learn to put assessment for learning into practice.
