Varied Assessment Methods for Gifted Students
Course Description:
In this course, you will learn about the three main types of assessment and how they can be differentiated for gifted students: pre-assessment, formative assessment, and summative assessment. The course will discuss the importance of differentiating rigor, particularly when assessing gifted students. You will also learn how to develop and execute a plan of action to use within your own current or future classroom. After developing your action plan, you will delve further into ideas for implementation by analyzing and applying research and articles to the classroom and by designing a resource that supports the work you plan to implement. Through targeted activities, resources and templates, and reference guides and examples, you will build a strategic implementation plan to ensure that you have a successful plan of action.
