Maryland and Michigan FAME participants share more than a project name. They share the desire to improve their assessment and instructional practices in service of helping their students learn and achieve more. The sudden change in learning environments has challenged teachers and administrators to transfer their understanding from brick and mortar to online classrooms. What can teachers learn in their current practices that can transfer to new delivery methods, and what can we learn from our colleagues in support of these challenges.

Join us for a 4 part series that will look deeper at elements of the formative assessment process, provide awareness of technologies that support these elements and provide opportunities to share with educators who are on this same journey.
