from edWebcasts Hosted by Amplify

Presented by Emily Lutrick, Ed.D., Experienced Education Leader, Director of Assessment & Intervention Adoption Strategy, Amplify This edWeb podcast is sponsored by Amplify. The webinar recording can be accessed here. In this edWeb podcast, we examine the types of data available through observational and asset-based assessments in literacy and math, and their potential in the K–8 classroom. We also explore how real-time data and progress monitoring can drive differentiation and targeted instructional recommendations to best support intervention, remediation, and enrichment. We pull out key examples of assessment items and responses or behaviors, how they reveal student thinking, and how they can be used to transform instruction and intervention to get all students to grade level and beyond. We also touch on benefits to teachers when it comes to understanding students and saving valuable time lesson planning. This edWeb podcast is of interest to K–8 teachers, librarians, school leaders, district leaders, and education technology leaders.
