Assessment Powerpoint

Today in class we learned about assessments that are used in the elementary and middle school classrooms. Dr. E presented a PowerPoint that was very informative about assessments. Some of the information I took from that PowerPoint is that teachers should be flexible while addressing different learning styles. Teachers should also use a variety of assessment types in the classroom. For science related assessments, teachers should focus on performance and authentic assessments. It is understood that science learning is so hands on and that is important to note when deciding how you are going to assess your students.
