Beyond the Grade Book: Designing Assessments That Actually Inspire Learning
Traditional assessments have long been a source of anxiety for students and frustration for educators. But what if we could reimagine assessment as a powerful learning tool rather than just a method of measurement?
The Problem with Traditional Assessment
Most educators recognize that traditional grading methods often fail to capture the true depth of student understanding. Multiple-choice tests and standardized exams reduce complex learning to a simple numerical score, missing the nuanced growth happening in each student's educational journey.
