We need to learn how to create authentic assessments that are not standardized. This can be scary for some. #ssdedu

YEs, we need to give students choice in demonstrating their mastery. We might need pd on this for ideas of how to do this well. #ssdedu

Open ended prompts and standards based rubrics. Did they meet/exceed the standard? Can they explain/support reasoning? #ssdedu
