  Case: Student Learning Objectives
SLO's will hold a significant impact on the evaluation of connection teachers. Some students tend to not show much effort on these types of assessments. What are some ways teachers can ensure that students are prepared and motivated to do well on these assessments to show proper growth?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This has to start with how the teacher talks about the SLO. I know that when this was new to my former school, teachers talked negatively about them, even in front of the students. If the teachers don't express the value or down-play these tests, so will the students. If the classroom rituals and routines value these tests, then the students will eventually as well.
