Assessment is an integral part of my artistic process. John Morris #MICA2018

What do we what students to know about assessment? It's a tool (not a judgement). It's offers clarity. It promotes learning. #MICA2018

Tell students "Assessment is FOR YOU." Important to build trust. #MICA2018

What is the role of assessment when a teaching artist is only working with students once for a short period of time?

There is a call to rebalance our thinking around learning and assessment. This is our most tested generation. They are tired. #MICA2018

"We need to untether assessment and grading". Jen Etter #MALI2018

Community members, parents, even many teachers, don't understand the role of assessment either. How, then, can we expect our legislators to? #MICA2018

Grading can cause stops in learning. Some advocate for "delayed grading". Focus on feedback, reflection, visualization. #MICA2018

Allow and encourage students to ask questions. It gives teachers another way to know what students know and are wondering about. #MICA2018

Definition of Advocacy: to champion, to give voice to, to summon to one's aid!
