I have been teaching high school math for 15 years. I have always struggled with assessment. The district in which I teach requires math teachers to have 5 assessments per quarter. And, our administration’s definition of an assessment is a quiz or test. I believe our system is archaic, especially in the way we teach in my department. Hence, my signing up for this PD. My goal is to incorporate what I learn and SHOW my fellow co-workers how different methods will help our students.
