How Classroom Assessments Can Improve Teaching
Speaker: Bill Penuel, Director of Evaluation Research for the Center for Technology at SRI International
Effective classroom assessments can reveal important information about schools and individual students. Unfortunately, most current tests don't assess vital innovation skills such as critical thinking and problem solving. Researchers at SRI's Center for Technology in Learning are working to develop classroom assessments that can be as effective as tutoring and serve as a diagnostic tool for teachers. Bill Penuel explains why it's important to provide teachers with technology that informs- but doesn't automate- the evaluation process.
