Session Description

Too often in classrooms teachers make decisions about a diverse group of learners based on the responses of one or two. They bemoan the results of end of unit tests and complain that students lack the ability to recall key concepts when topics are revisited. This workshop will aim to address these issues. It will demonstrate to participants various formative assessment strategies that can be used to reframe the learning as it is happening. It will model the use of different questioning techniques to help the teacher better understand the needs of all learners and it will explore the way feedback tools can be used to not only identify areas for future learning, but also provide information to the teacher about the success or limitations of the lesson.
