No matter the status of your school assessment plans, the Institute on Critical Issues: Assessment provides a phenomenal opportunity to write, review, or critique them. The Institute, with its focus on assessment for school leaders and teachers, offers you the chance to work on your plans in collaborative teams with leaders from across the nation. Representatives from PARCC and Smarter Balanced will also be participating.

The unique format of the Institute will rely on collaborative teams working toward common goals within the strands of formative/summative classroom assessments, teacher evaluation, and assessment of curricular programs. In addition to group work, we will hear from experts in the field, including Beverly Chin,Scott Filkins, Tamara Maxwell, and others. Teacher-leaders with technology expertise will provide minilessons, and the team spirit will continue into the evening events.

The Institute takes place July 17-19, at Elmhurst College, in Elmhurst, Illinois.
