SECONDARY SESSION 3: RETHINKING ASSESSMENT
How can we effectively measure student learning in the context of a hands-on experience? In this session, we will collaboratively explore and brainstorm new methods for assessing student work in meaningful and creative ways. We will evaluate different types of assessment to determine the best fit for your context, explore digital tools that facilitate evidence collection and ultimately seek ways to make assessment simple, effective, and maybe even fun!
