Description: Student-Led Assessment by Starr Sackstein Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This lively and comprehensive guide provides the tools needed to help students compile and present evidence of learning through portfolios and student-led conferences - from templates and rubrics to personal testimonials, reflection questions and activities. Publisher Description The single greatest authority on student learning is the student doing the learning—but the right structures must be in place for students voices to be clearly heard and truly valued.Conventional formative and summative assessment are most often conducted through one-size-fits-all quizzes and tests that yield narrow, predetermined categories of data about students academic progress. But if we want a truly accurate look at what, how, and to what extent students are learning, who better to consult than the obvious experts on the matter: the students themselves.In this lively and comprehensive guide, veteran teacher and author Starr Sackstein provides the tools needed to help students compile and present evidence of learning through portfolios and student-led conferences—from templates and rubrics to personal testimonials, reflection questions, and activities.The book features* Forms—applicable across grade levels and content areas—for unpacking standards, co-constructing success criteria with students, evaluating current classroom practices, and more.* Real-life perspectives and scenarios from educators in the field who have embraced portfolios and student-led conferences over standardized tests and letter grades.* Practical, experience-based guidance for building classroom and schoolwide learning cultures that promote both learner agency and academic achievement.The resources, recommendations, and reflections in Student-Led Assessment allow educators at all levels to develop systems and protocols for ensuring student ownership of—and pride in—their own hard-won achievement.

In her last school-based position, Sackstein threw out grades, teaching students that learning isnt about numbers but about developing skills and articulating growth.Sackstein is a National Board–Certified educator as well as certified as a Master Journalism Educator by the Journalism Education Association (JEA), for which she served as New York State Director from 2010 to 2016. She is the author or coauthor of many books, including but not limited to From Teacher to Leader: Finding Your Way as a First-Time Leader Without Losing Your Mind, Teaching Mythology Exposed: Helping Teachers Create Visionary Classroom Perspective, and Peer Feedback in the Classroom: Empowering Students to Be the Experts.
