Perhaps a new approach to assessment might be considered more broadly- in relation to students and teachers- to shift from a judgement model to a coaching, guiding model, in which the individual being assessed ( teacher or student) participates actively in the assessment- by reflecting deeply on what worked, what didn't and what might be done differently to improve in the future. And this can indeed be both an individual and collective endeavor.Lori Polachekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02621674723470009609noreply@blogger.com
