On Friday at our Staff Conference, Mike spoke about the importance of ongoing formative assessment and student reflection in the classroom for the primary purpose of improving student learning.
He also spoke about how our school's "Professional Learning Project" program is a powerful tool to help teachers reflect on their own teaching practices so that they can improve learning outcomes for their students.This new video from the Teaching Channel has been timely as it demonstrates how teaching practices can be improved with coaching and reflection and is well worth viewing.

I have also just come across AllThingsAssessment which is a website that has many interesting articles and links to other relevant websites about formative and summative assessment in the classroom.
