“The Power of Assessment to Transform Teaching and learning”
written by Thomas Guskey
This article really resonated with me because it stresses the importance of formative assessment and explains it in a reader friendly way. Assessment should be used to improve a students learning by identifying areas which need growth and extend students learning whenever possible.
Thanks for this article, Briana! I really liked your connection of this article to our own practice as educators. Formative assessment of our mistakes as well as successes is equally important in informing our teaching!
