Monitoring Student Academic Progress Throughout the School Year: Why, When, and How?

In this interactive webinar Robert Anderson, Senior Assessment Specialist at WestEd, will guide district, school, and classroom decision-makers to consider the differences in format, content and timing of local student assessments. The discussion will explore the uses of assessment results to monitor the academic achievement of individual students and groups of students, to identify and assist students in need of differentiated instruction, to evaluate program effectiveness, and to inform district, school, and classroom decision-making. Participants will examine key criteria for choosing assessments that meet specific local needs and the effective use of assessments and their results in efforts to accelerate student learning.

Join the follow-up discussion.
