Effective Assessment Strategies
In the current education landscape, there is often an emphasis on grades and scores, but it’s important to remember that education is about the learning process. Assessments should enhance and support this journey. By following key principles like defining course objectives, using a variety of assessments, including soft skills, and reflecting on progress, you can create a meaningful educational experience for your child. Remember, effective assessment is not just about what your child knows, but how they apply and interact with that knowledge. Embrace a mastery-based approach and foster a supportive philosophy to help your child succeed academically and in life.
