In this edWebinar, we’ll examine the types of data available through observational and asset-based assessments in literacy and math, and their potential in the K–8 classroom. We’ll also explore how real-time data and progress monitoring can drive differentiation and targeted instructional recommendations to best support intervention, remediation, and enrichment.

We’ll pull out key examples of assessment items and responses or behaviors, how they reveal student thinking, and how they can be used to transform instruction and intervention to get all students to grade level and beyond. We’ll also touch on benefits to teachers when it comes to understanding students and saving valuable time lesson planning.

This edWebinar will be of interest to K–8 teachers, librarians, school leaders, district leaders, and education technology leaders.
