Formative Assessment- Addressing Misconceptions
Christopher Columbus HS
5 sessions held every other Tuesday, at 4pm begins October 9th
Terri McCauley
How do teachers know if their students understand what they are trying to teach? And what can a teacher do if students “don’t get it”? In this series of workshops, participants will examine research-based methods and incorporate practices to assess students during a lesson. We will identify concepts in which students often hold misconceptions in science and mathematics and construct activities that can be used to address the lack of background knowledge. The Professional Development Coordinators will visit teachers between sessions to follow up.
