(GR) (OL) In this course, assessment and subsequent teacher accountability as the driving force towards increased student achievement in the classroom is explored. Topics covered in the course include: formative and summative assessment practices, assessment of learning vs. assessment for learning, student self-assessment, and group assessment processes. Further, candidates will review local, state, and national student achievement data as a means to develop classroom assessment procedures that reflect the need to close the national achievement gap. In particular, the use of technology in the assessment process including bell-ringers, E-exit slips, and assessment using smartphone technology will be emphasized throughout all course objectives and assignments.
