Synopsis
Leadership is a continuous work in progress. Leaders must not only move toward success purposely and thoughtfully but also ensure that others are working toward their vision as well. When trying to incorporate system change, leaders will encounter obstacles that may divert their focus from the end goal. Staying on track toward success is difficult in the face of change and, at times, resistance, but assessment for learning provides the foundation and processes that leaders need in order to plan next steps and move from where they are to where they want to be. Using the same steps that enable students to achieve, leaders can employ assessment for learning techniques to plan for, implement, gather feedback about, and collect evidence of change for learning. The goal is organizational learning constant, informed change.
Transforming Schools and Systems Using Assessment shows leaders how to engage in system change using the principles of assessment for learning by exploring subjects such as:
systemic focus and alignment
professional development
resistance
parents and community
quality feedback
standards-based reporting
Whether the system is a school, a cluster of schools, or an entire district, this book will help leaders put into practice the principles and big ideas of assessment for learning to lead the way to system change at all levels of education.
