The primary purpose of classroom assessment is to inform our instruction, not to determine a grade. Learning in no way depends on grades. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #ATchat #SBLchat #TG2Chat

📊 Assessment is necessary for good teaching. #Grading is not. Dialoguing with, listening to, and observing #students are often our best #assessment. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #SBLchat #TG2Chat
A close-up of a multiple-choice test being graded with a red pen marking an "A+." Large brown text at the bottom reads, "Good teaching requires assessment, not grading." The "lead inclusion." logo is in the top right corner.

📌 #Students should not be punished with poor #grades for the mistakes they make along their way to mastery. Mistakes are a part of the learning process. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #SBLchat #TG2Chat #EduSky
A boy in a plaid shirt sits on a sidewalk looking upset, head in hands. Text reads, "Mistakes are a part of the learning process."

🔍 We need to rethink the purpose of grading. Is it to rank and sort students, or to provide feedback and support their learning? Let's prioritize the latter. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #SBLchat #TG2Chat #EduSky

📈 Our rubrics need to shift from being focused on what's missing to what's next. Learning progressions empower a growth mindset by focusing on what students CAN do. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #SBLchat #TG2Chat #EduSky

📚 Steps to mastery of a skill: 1. acquisition (I did it once) 2. fluency (I can do it consistently) 3. maintenance (I can keep doing it) 4. transfer (I can use it in new ways) (Hanson, et al., 1978) and still true. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #SBLchat #TG2Chat #EduSky

🔍 Missing work doesn’t mean missing learning—it just means we don’t have the evidence yet. Instead of assuming gaps, let’s focus on how we can gather evidence of learning. #GradingForGrowth

A black magnifying glass rests on an open blue spiral notebook against a white background. Large bold black text in a rounded white speech bubble reads, "Missing isn’t evidence of no learning. It’s just no evidence." The "lead inclusion." logo is in the bottom right corner.

🔍 Gone are the days when the purpose of #assessment was to #grade and rank #students. Assessment is part of the instructional process--#feedback is the priority, not a grade. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #EdLeaders #Teachers #SBLchat #TG2Chat
A smiling teacher wearing glasses and a pink blazer sits next to a young student, both engaged with a laptop screen. Large black text at the top says, "feedback," followed by smaller text, "is the priority, not a grade." The "lead inclusion." logo appears in the bottom left corner.

📈 A more formal assessment doesn't necessarily lead to greater assessment accuracy. Often, informal chat with a learner is our most reliable and valid evaluation. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #UDL #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #SBLchat #TG2Chat #ATAssessment
Children writing in a classroom, focused and engaged. Text reads, "A formal assessment is sometimes the least valid way to assess."
