     Instructions

    1. For HW 6.2, you reviewed the Assessment Literacy Chart (here is the link to the chart if you would like to access it) and issues of coherence and reliability using three case studies. Report on the cases you analyzed.

    2. Then report what you think is your most important learning, change in your practice, or commitment to future work in relationship to one of the three concepts (Useful, Meaningful, Equitable). Then be prepared to share your thinking with the whole group.

    4. Participate in a shower of Ideas with the class. The facilitator will write your idea or aha on the board as you shout them out. (Try not to speak on top of someone else as you do this.)
