Literature as a Lens: Teaching Assessment to Preservice Teachers
Poster
Abstract
This presentation explores a book study where preservice teachers use a children’s novel to learn assessment practices. Students analyze a character through reading circles, develop an assessment plan, and create an assessment report. Participants will learn the implementation steps and data creation process and hear student feedback about the project.
