Standards-Based Learning
A standards-based learning system is built around several powerful ideas:
-
All classroom instruction and assessments are aligned to BSD Learning Targets
-
Multiple opportunities are provided for students to demonstrate growth and learning
-
Formative assessment practices provide feedback focused on student growth and support improved instruction
-
Consistent scoring guides (rubrics) determine a student's level of learning and indicate what a student must do to improve
-
Regular reporting of progress on each learning target occurs
-
Academics and behaviors are reported separately
-
The highest value is placed on teacher judgment and expertise
