For Teachers and Administrators

 

 

When it comes to student performance, teachers typically ask these five questions:

 

  • What should students be   able to do?

  • What will indicate if students have met standard?

  • What does high quality      look like?

  • How will student performance be evaluated and measured?

  • How will students and teachers use data and feedback to drive instruction?
