Dr Lyn Sharratt will be returning to Australia in September to facilitate two special leadership events for educators in New South Wales.
Putting FACES on the Data will examine how educators can collaboratively build the bridge from in-school data collection to improve instruction in the classroom. Student assessment data, including NAPLAN results, can provide valuable beginnings and opportunities for rich conversations about what assessment and instructional strategies are needed for all students: those stuck, those struggling and those who need extending.
Lyn will discuss strategies from her book, ‘Putting FACES on the Data’, along with findings from her work with Australian schools and systems, to explain how collectively, educators can develop a common language for whole-school sharing of students’ progress and how ongoing assessment can be used to successfully inform instruction.
