Assessment Leadership: Leading a Coherent Assessment System to Improve Teaching and Learning

Research shows that 90 percent of teachers use data to adjust instruction, yet 30 percent feel unprepared to interpret results effectively. This data-to-action gap highlights the need for assessment leadership. This session explored WestEd’s research-based framework and its core competencies: developing assessment vision and knowledge, engaging partners in system evaluation, and building a culture of assessment literacy.
