About the Workshop:

Participants will increase their knowledge of ethical and evidence-based assessment practices that reveal students’ strengths and needs to support regulation, connection and growth.

Anticipated Outcomes:

• Participants will increase their skills in connecting assessment information to regulation, unmet needs, and support planning
• Participants will increase their understanding of what each assessment means and how to utilize assessments in evaluations
• Participants will collaborate to find reliable assessments when the ones currently being utilized don’t give the information needed.
• Participants will develop meaningful, student-centered evaluations using “Language that Lifts” (rewriting observational language that is strength based, student centered, and regulation informed)
• Participants will build a network of thought partners through collaborative discussions
