Teaching-Assessment


 * A rigorous and relevant curriculum to produce critical thinkers

This is current a random list of criteria. I want to get these thoughts down (and in one place). Then, I'll go back and organize them into Formative vs Benchmark and how all the data should work together.
 * Formative & Benchmark Assessments with timely differentiated instruction
 * Assessment beyond the basic skills
 * Measures that integrate content knowledge and ways of applying and thinking about that knowledge
 * Measure mastery of content while producing, synthesizing, evaluation (higher New Bloom)
 * Measure Critical Thinking, Communications/Collaboration, Creativity
 * Measure problem solving, analytical reasoning
 * Performance assessments and portfolio assessments
 * Systems for managing assessment data
 * Mechanism for quick turnaround of benchmark results
 * Communication systems/data reporting systems that point out deficiencies & strengths - in an Actionable format aka Actional Reports
 * Teacher scoring (with built in PD) for performance based assessments
