  Case: Assessment Results
Ms. Jones knows assessment is a vital part of instruction and she assesses her students on a regular basis. When she grades their tests, she records the scores into her grade book and sends them home. Recently her principal suggested that her classroom needs to be more data driven. Now, Ms. Jones is trying to figure out what to do in order to improve her instruction using data and assessment. What can she do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
For good or bad, we are all in a data driven education world. Ms. Jones needs to begin by creating assessments that have test questions that are directly tied to a specific standard. All questions should be related to a standard. By creating standardized tests that are related to standards, Ms. Jones can now link learning and methods directly to assessment results.
