Let’s explore the heath of assessment cultures. Assessment can make or break hope for students & teachers. What purpose does it serve & how might we shift it toward a process for decision-making? Who is it for & how might we augment the role students play? www.solutiontree.com/ca/softening...

I was pleased to sit down for a podcast interview with the team at Unpacking Education (AVID Open Access). We spoke about assessment and its relationship to learning, to creativity, and to student agency. It was a fun one!! avidopenaccess.org/resource/496...

Here is the full post laying out not just what students said (they had a lot to say!) but also why it felt much different this time around—and what I think is important to take away from these conversations: thebrokencopier.substack.com/p/i-asked-my...

Another great day of learning with Golden Hills SD and my co-presenter Dean Shareski on AI in education. We crafted “use cases” and prompts and shared data collected from students and staff on AI use and perceptions. It was a great day of learning. @edusky.bsky.social

One of the most fulfilling parts of my job as a consultant is being able to facilitate conversations and shared work where I can step back and watch teachers who trust each other enough to wonder and think together. This Fayetteville AR group did just that this week and it was magical. #EduSky

Whether you are almost done with the school year or just finished, I think it's really important to take time and consider whether the way your grading policy impacted your classroom and particularly the learning within it. (Even better: if you can, ask students about choices you made!)

This space was buzzing all day as Vancouver elementary teachers were led and inspired by @katiewhite426.bsky.social to think about responses to assessment, involving kids in the response, and meaningful core competency reflections. 6 sessions in 4 days with various groups! It was AMAZING!

Anytime we invite students to think about how they learn and the decisions they are making in service of learning, we are sharing the ownership of learning with them. Tools like this can help facilitate the process. www.solutiontree.com/ca/free-reso... #edusky

"Hey everyone, we're just going to pause for a second—one to five, how is everyone doing?" 1️⃣ ask them how they're doing 2️⃣ if you want, count the #'s (how many 5's, 4's, etc.) 3️⃣ have them share with a partner Best 5 minutes you can spend in a classroom. (Especially right now.)

Mid-career shift for me as a teacher: realizing that how I return feedback to students is way more important than what the feedback actually is In other words, no matter how much time/effort I spend on the feedback itself, it doesn't matter if I'm not intentional about how students receive it

This is such an important book. I recommend it as a key read this month. There are many lessons from it, all critical for our daughters, nieces, aunts, grandmas, mothers, sisters, friends, partners. Women make up half the world’s population. Half. It is time we find ourselves in data.

At my school, we've launched an AI-themed book club, and AI discussions, along with tech spotlights, will be a regular feature on staff meeting agendas. No matter your stance on AI in education, it’s crucial to foster staff discussions on the topic.

I just deleted, "I appreciate how you are..." in formative feedback on a teacher candidate's learning journal and changed it to "you are....and that means..." My time with @katiewhite426.bsky.social this week and thinking about removing "I" from feedback is right up front in my brain!

Interesting read on AI and assessment: theconversation.com/ai-detection...
theconversation.com
AI-detection software isn’t the solution to classroom cheating — assessment has to shift
If educators want to make valid inferences about what students know and can do, assessments like drafts, works-in-progress and repeated observations of student learning are needed.
