principal64 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2. One/one conferences, report cards, progress reports, goal conferences #mdeschat

DeniseFaidley Mar 16 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A2. Ts usually meet 1:1 or write specific notes on their work. Should be targeted, timely & specific. #mdeschat

principal64 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 8:17 PM EDT

True, timely & specific feedback is the key to supporting student growth #mdeschat

A2. Ts usually meet 1:1 or write specific notes on their work. Should be targeted, timely & specific. #mdeschat

TammyPeru Mar 16 @ 8:19 PM EDT

A2. We need to differentiate between grading and feedback. Not all feedback needs to be in the form of a grade. 1/2 #mdeschat

DeniseFaidley Mar 16 @ 8:20 PM EDT

Question 3 is coming soon #mdeschat

TammyPeru Mar 16 @ 8:20 PM EDT

A2. Guided practice is essential. To get a growth mindset, Ss need to be able to practice before being assessed. 2/2 #mdeschat

Grades only have meaning when they're given context toward the standards- an important connection #mdeschat

Q3. Why is it important for teachers to examine data with students? #mdeschat

jazzmeister2013 Mar 16 @ 8:23 PM EDT

A2- 1-1 conferencing, looking at performance and goal setting. How'd I do? Where and how can I improve? #mdeschat

DeniseFaidley Mar 16 @ 8:24 PM EDT

A3. Involving Ss in the monitoring process helps them with goal setting and understanding learning targets. #mdeschat

principal64 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 8:24 PM EDT

A3. Transparency is impt, students benefit from a partnership w/the teacher, they need to be involved to understand their role #mdeschat

TammyPeru Mar 16 @ 8:27 PM EDT

A3. Ss need to learn to self-assess. When Ts share the data w/them, how Ss are evaluated is not a mystery. 1/2 #mdeschat

DeniseFaidley Mar 16 @ 8:27 PM EDT

Question 4 is around the corner #mdeschat

evyabel Mar 16 @ 8:28 PM EDT

A3. Data needs to have a meaning and it should belong to Ts and Ss, it's more than a number #mdeschat

DeniseFaidley Mar 16 @ 8:22 PM EDT

Q3. Why is it important for teachers to examine data with students? #mdeschat

TammyPeru Mar 16 @ 8:28 PM EDT

A3. When Ts & Ss look at data together, they can set goals & make a plan to improve together, too. Ss are empowered. 2/2 #mdeschat

evyabel Mar 16 @ 8:29 PM EDT

A2. When criteria is established, sharing is just another step towards achievement. I prefer conference #mdeschat

DeniseFaidley Mar 16 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A5. Interims, report cards, conferences, & weekly progress folders. Ps need tools to interpret data. #mdeschat

TammyPeru Mar 16 @ 8:40 PM EDT

I agree. Love to see different ideas. Some elements are essential; then Ts make binders work for them. #mdeschat

DeniseFaidley Mar 16 @ 8:38 PM EDT

love conferring binders. As Ts gain knowledge in how to confer, more support will be needed with data organization and use

A5. Data walls and data binders where Ss color their graphs and explain their goals, growth and challenges #mdeschat
