Equity in education is about ensuring that all students have an equal opportunity to succeed, regardless of their background or circumstances. In this session, we will explore how to break free from traditional assessment practices that perpetuate achievement gaps and limit students' potential. Too often, assessments are used to label students rather than to foster learning and growth. These labels can shape students' perceptions of their abilities and limit their achievements. Thissession will introduce you to practical assessment strategies that prioritize student agency, especially for those from marginalized groups. Learn how to use a rubric that not only evaluates proficiency but also offers constructive feedback, helping students identify areas for growth and chart a clear path towards improvement.
