Tarsi philosophy of assessment
This document outlines Vince Tarsi's philosophy of assessment which includes evaluating the needs of students, teachers, and schools to support student growth and learning. Assessment should identify strengths and weaknesses, modify teaching, and direct school improvement plans while focusing on individual student progress monitoring. Assessment is meant to be more than just numbers and should promote higher-level thinking, reliability, validity and accountability in a transparent manner without unrealistic expectations.
Chamberlain philosophy of assessment
The document discusses the philosophy and purposes of assessment in education. It notes that the primary goal of assessment should be to improve student learning. Formative assessments, in particular, help teachers evaluate what students are learning and modify their teaching accordingly. The document emphasizes that assessments need to be aligned to standards and provide useful feedback to teachers on what was taught effectively and what needs reteaching. It also stresses the importance of high-quality instruction following assessments to address any learning gaps identified. Overall, the document promotes using a variety of assessment data and collaborative practices to drive instructional improvements and ensure growth for all students.
Donohue philosophy of assessment
This document discusses the importance of using assessment data to improve teaching and learning. It advocates being "knowledge-driven" rather than just "data-driven" and using data to identify what students know and don't know in order to adjust instruction. The document outlines an approach involving multiple measures, school-wide goals, and regular data analysis within professional learning communities. The goals are to support student growth, engage students through differentiated instruction, and use formative and summative assessments in an ongoing cycle of reflection, planning, assessment, and action.
Dumontet philosophy of assessment
This document discusses using student assessment data to guide instruction. It recommends that teachers (1) collect baseline student data, (2) use the data to develop remediation plans, and (3) evaluate student progress using formative and summative assessments. Sample student growth percentile data is presented for grades 3-6. The document stresses the importance of teacher collaboration, making instructional adjustments based on data, and using response to intervention supports for students struggling. The overall goal is to use assessment data and collaborative planning to continuously improve and refine instruction.
Ferris philosophy of assessment
This document outlines Melissa Ferris's philosophy on assessment. Some key beliefs include:
1) Data provides a detailed picture of student performance and highlights areas for growth.
2) Data is a roadmap that will determine the direction of the school and how hard teachers will work depending on how it is used.
3) Assessment is an integral part of instruction and is needed to understand where students are at so they can learn at high levels.
The document lists non-negotiables around using different forms of data regularly as a team to identify areas for improvement and ensure all students show growth. It also discusses the importance of trust, support, and creating conditions to help teachers succeed.
Buswell philosophy of assessment
This document discusses the philosophy of assessment in education. It states that the purpose of assessment is to support and enhance student learning by evaluating students' academic performance, abilities, development, and needs. Assessment should use multiple measures including both formal and informal methods, and standardized and non-standardized tests. Assessment data will be communicated to students, parents, and the community. The document emphasizes using data from various assessments to guide instruction, evaluate programs, and ensure schools are meeting their mission and goals for student growth and achievement.
Hillius philosophy of assessment
Assessment involves using various tools to identify, gather, evaluate, and interpret student understanding on a specific topic. It is a necessary process that influences instructional goals and needs, empowers teacher learning and self-reflection, and informs student growth. Effective assessment requires collaboration between teachers, administrators, students and parents to establish high expectations for all students. Data from assessments should be regularly monitored, evaluated, and used to guide improvement efforts aimed at increasing teacher quality and student learning.
Burnett philosophy of assessment
This document presents a metaphor comparing a school to a movie in production. It states that the principal is the director who guides teachers and staff to help students succeed. Just as in a movie, there is a beginning, middle, and end to the school year that must be planned and adjusted based on student data reviewed collaboratively. The goal is for students to leave prepared for their next step, and for the school "movie" to have a happy ending through focused effort and teamwork from all involved.

Dornan philosophy of assessment
This document outlines the philosophy and keys to effective data-driven instruction. It discusses that data-driven instruction is about using testing to improve teaching, not teaching to tests. It emphasizes using data from regular observations and assessments to shift the school mindset from whether teaching occurred to whether students learned. Regular data conferences and analysis are necessary to identify struggling students and implement new teaching plans. Creating systems to ensure continual data analysis and using assessment data to prioritize learning are essential to the success of a data-driven approach.

Clark philosophy of assessment
Classroom assessment plays a key role in fostering students' attitudes, skills, knowledge, and thinking, or stifling their development. The document outlines a process for using assessment as a continuous cycle to improve instruction and support student learning. Teachers should assess students before and after instructional units, use data to inform materials and teaching methods, provide additional support as needed, and evaluate their own effectiveness through ongoing assessment.

Nec peer coaching a value-added impact
Nec peer coaching a value-added impactNortheast Center, Office of Academic Support, SUNY Empire State College
In order to foster the academic skills development of students at all levels of academic ability and to increase student learning and retention, Northeast Center faculty and academic support collaborated to design innovative approaches which integrate in-person academic support into credit-bearing studies. As a result, we have developed several embedded academic support models using learning and peer coaches to assist students in their acquisition and enhancement of writing skills, academic research strategies and content area knowledge. This presentation will explore the ways in which we have embedded academic support into two different study groups (writing and history) – highlighting the benefits for both faculty and students – and examine lessons learned. Our intention with the presentation is to bring the audience into this conversation, sharing the models we use for our peer coach training and embedded academic support approaches. Participants will be asked to reflect on experiences in their own centers and take away ideas for how they might adapt these models to enhance their own embedded academic support efforts.

Cruzan puentes de agua y lágrimas, evitan ser atrapados por una "cremallera gigante" y llegan a un lugar celeste, solo para descubrir que han vuelto al punto de partida. La narración está llena de imágenes poéticas pero desconectadas que crean una sensación de misterio y desorientación.

It notes that people are less committed to long-term careers in the private sector due to concerns about job hopping or using jobs just as stepping stones.
