Episode #5: Assessment: Making the Marks and the Learning Meaningful in a Pandemic

Today we welcome two wonderful educators Tammy Thero-Soto and Joy Wicks, assessment consultants from Curriculum and Learning Supports at Edmonton Public Schools. These two have been intrinsic in mentoring both online and in-person teachers to navigate the complexities of assessing and reporting student learning during a school year that called for innovation in everything we do.

As readers, podcast consumers, and learners we often lean on other people’s work and wisdom in our mentorship. We often lean on materials like the following:

  • Alberta Assessment Consortium
  • Distance Learning Playbook, Grades K-12: Teaching for Engagement and Impact in Any Setting
  • https://www.epl.ca/summer-starts/
  • As we finish the school year, stay tuned for a reflective, final episode of After the Bell: Extra Credit Season 1, launching in June 2021.  Email us at: [email protected]
