Upcoming Webinar on Using Data on Children’s Progress to Inform Teaching

This post originally appeared on .

Anyone who has grappled with questions of what to do with data from child assessments â€“ whether based on observations of children’s development over months or simple snapshots of early literacy learning â€“ will want to tune in to the next webinar coming from the PreK-3rd Grade National Work Group. On December 5, the work group is hosting its sixth webinar in a seven-part series on reducing achievement gaps through comprehensive reforms that reach up through the early grades of elementary school.

The webinar has a bang-up panel. As always, the ¹ú²úÊÓÆµ Foundation, through Lisa Guernsey () or Laura Bornfreund (), will live-tweet the event. You can register or go to the page for more information.
