Assessment Workgroup

The Assessment Workgroup explored the use of innovative and authentic assessments (e.g., performance-based assessment, portfolio assessments, etc.) to determine best practices and requirements for the use of assessment as part of educator evaluation, including how these assessments can pinpoint student understanding in meaningful ways and provide educators with valuable information to inform their instruction.  

The Assessment Workgroup toolkit provides a summary of tools and resources that were shared with Assessment Workgroup participants.
