I will be spending the next month back at UBC learning all I need to know to become a teacher. One of my classes is on assessment and as I assume it is meant to do it got me thinking about how I will be assessing my students over the 10 weeks that I will be teaching them.  I am mainly fascinated by the idea of assessment AS learning.  Assessment AS learning is basically allowing the student to use assessment to further their learning and to help them identify their strengths and weaknesses.  The concept of this I feel will work very well in tech ed and I am eager to test out different ways to incorporate it.
