A1 Before leaving the classroom, I shifted towards having students demonstrate their learning in ways other than formal tests. A test only shows so much. Ss can demonstrate what they know in so many ways. #ditchbook
IMO this is where we should all be at, Evan. Let's have students prove their learning. A test is not the only way or even the most effective way to gauge learning. #ditchbook
Mad love to Ss who act as peer tutors, too! 90% of what we learn is when we teach it, so our current model of instruction is outdate, for sure! #ditchbook
