Yes, summative assessmemt at the end of each unit/year is important. However, formative assessment that measures student growth during the year so that teachers can pivot/target instruction to meet the needs of specific students is just as important. Join Starr and I as we discuss not only formative assessment techniques but also alternative and authentic assessment that motivates students to learn (project based learning as well as student portfolio assessment).
