TSSA NETWORK SCHOOLS WEBINAR
"Reflection as a Form of Assessment"
Jessica Vance
from Leading with Inquiry (Texas, USA)
How do we assess our learners while fostering agency and maintaining an inquiry mindset? How can we strengthen critical thinking while slowing down for more mindful moments for ourselves and for our students? In this one hour webinar, Jessica will guide you in uncovering your personal beliefs about assessment in the early years and beyond. She will demonstrate how thinking routines create practical opportunities to bring inquiry to life in a meaningful, curriculum-connected way. You'll also gain the language to cultivate a culture of curiosity in your classroom and teaching practice. The session will conclude with rich strategies for documenting and evidencing learning to enhance your assessment practices.
Don't miss this chance to learn from Jessica, a globally renowned expert in inquiry-based learning and assessment. With a rich background in teaching and leadership across private and public international schools (as an IB PYP Educator and PYP Coordinator), Jessica brings a unique perspective to her work. Her commitment to student-centered learning, collaboration, and coaching is deeply rooted in her inspiration from students’ natural curiosity and their genuine engagement in learning both inside and outside the classroom.
