Workshop description:
Using assessment of and for learning enables educators to make responsive instructional decisions for their students.
In this workshop, we will explore authentic and accessible means of assessment in the music room for in-person and virtual learning that allow music-making to continue! Participants will engage with a variety of means of assessment that allow music teachers to gather valuable information on their students' understanding as well as means for student self-assessment. Strategies for managing data will also be explored.
Participants will leave this session with a full hand-out of ideas and an understanding of why authentic, data driven instruction is key to student success.
