Graduate Student Representative Erin Riley-Lepo is joined by Comfort Ateh, Ph.D., and Aaron Wyngowski, a middle-school social studies teacher who collaborated with Dr. Ateh on a study of formative assessment and the Common Core State Standards. The two discuss their work on subject-specific formative assessment. Mr. Wyngowski also shares his experiences with project-based learning in social studies classrooms and Dr. Ateh calls for more research into equitable formative assessment practices.
