Assessments take many forms, from qualitative observations to assignments and tests. All of these are opportunities for feedback not just for students, but also for teachers. So how can you take advantage of that, and improve what you’re doing in your classroom, without adding a bunch more work to your life?

Participants in this workshop will engage in discussion and exploration of what is currently working in Alberta classrooms.
