Measuring Mastery and Academic Growth in the Modern Classroom

If mastery and growth are the goal of teaching, why does education tend to emphasize completion and compliance over measurable learning? Measuring mastery and academic growth sounds great in theory - but we all know that more testing isn't the answer. Is it even possible to measure mastery and academic growth without spending more time assessing students?

In this session, we will speak with three educators who have centered their classroom practice around mastery. These educators have shifted their mindsets around mastery, discovered practical, doable ways to measure academic growth, and now know how to use that information to inform instruction and supercharge student growth. Together, we will delve into the processes that enable educators to measure mastery, the pitfalls to avoid as you craft personalized mastery checks, and how to strike the balance between differentiation and maintaining academic rigor.

Discover the art of creating authentic testing tasks that truly gauge student mastery while navigating grading biases and fostering an inclusive classroom environment. Uncover success stories and gain insights into measuring mastery's profound impact on student growth. Don't miss this enriching discussion!
