Assessment

Assessment, one of the 2018 Annual Meeting topics, focuses on purposeful planning and instruction. Outlined in the NCTM publication Mathematics Formative Assessment Volume 2, are 50 all-new formative assessment classroom techniques (FACTS) that are embedded throughout a cycle of instruction. This publication does not present a one-size fits all approach, but helps you build a bridge between your students' initial ideas and correct mathematical thinking.

Formative assessment "describes all those processes by which teachers and learners use information about student achievement to make adjustments to the students' learning. It's using information to adapt your teaching and adapt the work of the students to put the learning back on track, to make sure the learning is proceeding in the right direction." 


—Dylan Wiliam, Emeritus Professor of Educational Assessment at University College London

Make your plans to attend again early, and be excited to again share experiences and gain insights with thousands of peers.
