The Tuscon Activ08 User Group is kicking off with Mark Elliott (President, Promethean N. America) and Dr. Debra Pickering of Marzano & Associates.
The Marzano message – Commitment #1: Provide feedback through classroom formative assessment and grading. The focus is feedback. From Dr. Pickering’s Activstudio flipchart page:
“students with specific information about their standing in terms of particular objectives increase their achievement by 37 percentage points.”
Next we move to concurrent sessions at
Naylor Middle School
1701 S Columbus Blvd.
Tucson, AZ 85711
