Using Formative Assessment Data to Guide Staff Instruction

As a CTE administrator, assessment for learning takes as much precedence as assessment of learning. In this course, participants will find turnkey tasks and content that will help teachers of CTE courses determine the difference between the two types of assessment and then dig into methodologies for implementing assessment for learning at a greater depth in the classroom. Participants will gain strategies for helping teachers implement this type of assessment in the classroom in a meaningful way and use data from formative assessments to move students and their learning forward.

Objectives:
Understand the difference between summative and formative assessment.
Determine impact of formative assessment on classroom instruction.
Configure methods to collect and examine formative assessment work by students.
Identify components of effective feedback and practice scripting it for learning and growth in students.
