About This Workshop

For a blink of history, government schools have experimented with institutional 'grading' and embedded it into our culture as 'essential' for learning. Yet, for thousands of years, educators have used other methods to evaluate learning that are more individualized and effective than testing and letter grades. Find out more about assessment options, fit, and appropriate use of a broader range of tools. Dr. Dikkers will provide context, examples, and cognitive science to support your move to 'project' and 'conversational' assessments so you can confidently recognize and document your child's learning.
