Description: Have you analyzed your MAP data and found students are
not performing at the level that you wish? Summative
evaluations are used to determine if students have mastered
specific competencies and to identify instructional areas that need
additional attention. The goal of summative assessments is to make
a judgment of student competency -- after an instructional phase is
complete. Summative performance tasks encourage students to think
creatively and allow them to show what they know and can do in an
authentic context. The tasks are exciting, engaging, and
challenging. Attend this session to learn how to write effective
summative assessments. Bring ideas, see examples of good and
poor assessments and develop a performance/summative assessment you
can use in your classroom with your own designed scoring
tool. NEW
