Sustaining formative assessment with teacher learning communities
"Embedded formative assessment" (also available from Amazon) describes over 50 practical classroom techniques that teachers can use to engage their students, and to make their teaching more responsive to the needs of their students. However, developing classroom formative assessment takes time, and support. This short supplement to "Embedded formative assessment" explains why changing teaching practice is so difficult, and provides guidance on the creation of building-based teacher learning communities that can support teachers in developing their use of classroom formative assessment.
