Listen Later

Join us for the first episode in our series where we dive into student ownership of learning.  On this episode I am joined by Starr Sackstein.  Starr has a wide range of experiences from the journalism classroom to leading the competency based grading movement.  Moreover Starr has conquered the mountain called National Board Certification.  She works fulltime as a consultant with the Core Collaborative, and writes about educational movements such as assessment reform from several established blogs, including her own.  You'll love the practical tips she shares for how to give better feedback to students and empower students to initiate self and peer assessment of understanding.
