Students use a data notebook to analyze assessments and performance. We update them every few weeks to keep it fresh in their minds.

I use assessment data from various sources. We use STAR Reading data, Reading Plus data, MAP data, CERT data.

Welcome Jeff! Loved the video and the vision of performance/authentic assessment it offers. Not only an excellent job by the student, but a wonderful example of relevant assessment. Others may want to visit https://www.performanceassessmentresourcebank.org/ where Stanford University has undertaken the building of a performance assessment resource bank.
