ClassScape Training
Approximately 20 teachers and administrators attended ClassScape training at JP Knapp this morning. Another group is scheduled for the afternoon.
Trainers Phyllis Jernigen and Katie Sabino from NCSU conducted the training.
ClassScape is an online formative assessment tool that covers reading and math in grades 3-8 and science in grades 5 and 8. English 1 and Algebra 1 are offered for high school students. They are adding performance assessments, writing assessments, science across all grade levels and the remaining End of Course subjects.
There are three key questions we will be asking in the district this year. They are:
1. What do we expect students to know?
2. How do we know if they have learned it?
3. What do we do if they didn’t learn it?
These three questions come from the work of the Dufours and others working in the field of Professional Learning Communities. ClassScape will help us answer the second question, how do we know if students have learned the material.
