Back to Planning with the End in Mind
A teacher at Jasper Elementary School uses portfolios as a planning tool to support the growth of the diverse learners in his classroom.
Key Points
- Portfolios are an effective way to keep track of student progress over time.
- Students use portfolios to reflect on their understanding of outcomes.
- Students are given multiple opportunities to demonstrate their learning; time is not the determining factor.
Discussion Question
- What organization will be required in order to allow this degree of flexibility for students?
