student-teacher conferences, and portfolios are examples of effective assessment
methods.
Module 4: Assessment Development

through the steps of developing an assessment plan, which includes an Assessment
Timeline. They also create assessments to meet standards, 21st century skills,
and objectives for a unit or project.
