Summary: Today we talk with Dr. Brent Duckor and Dr. Carrie Holmberg, authors of the book Mastering Formative Assessment Moves: 7 High-Leverage Practices to Advance Student Learning. In the foreword for this book, Dr. John Hattie describes the work of Dr. Duckor and Dr. Holmberg as “[bringing to life] how to think of one’s self on a trajectory of powerful practices that unite instruction and assessment.” In many conversations, we tend to separate the two and don’t think deeply enough about the intersection of instruction and assessment. A highly recommended read from the 2 authors with publisher ASCD. Our conversation with them will give you a good summary of their perspective, valuable either before or after you read their phenomenal book.
