We will share with you some formative assessment classroom techniques (or FACTs) that can help you assess for learning. Formative assessment should be embedded in every lesson to inform instruction and provide feedback to students. After this session you will have some new ideas for incorporating this assessment and hopefully be ready to engage your students with some FACTs!
