New from The FrameWorks Institute (where I was fortunate to learn, thanks to a Rotary Charities of Traverse City Changemaker Fellowship):
“Envisioning Equity” offers 6 powerful shifts to reframe how we discuss assessment and equity in education.
Education = a shared responsibility
Assessment = a tool for justice
Key recommendations:
Reframe education beyond just teachers, students & parents
Emphasize how we all benefit from equitable education
Explain why current assessments must change
Show real-life examples of equitable assessment in action
Name systems as a driver of inequity
Redefine assessment as part of learning, not just proof of it
Cute photo of some Long Lake Elementary Panthers celebrating their Happy Feet success this year – they ran, walked and skipped their way well over 1,100 miles this school year! Way to go, Panthers!
