As AI becomes part of everyday learning, new research is raising a critical question for educators: Are traditional assessments still giving us an accurate picture of what students know and can do? Join this webinar to explore what this shift means for K–12 education and why measuring student thinking, reasoning, and real-world skills matters more than ever. Together, we’ll examine: ➡️ The evolving role of traditional assessments ➡️ What it means to capture meaningful evidence of student learning ➡️ How district leaders can rethink assessment practices to understand not just what students know, but how they think and apply their knowledge 🖥️ Register today: bit.ly/4edBAPB

TNTP’s 2009 Widget Effect study found that in districts with two evaluation ratings, more than 99% of teachers were rated satisfactory, and 73% of teachers said their evaluation hadn’t identified any area for development. Of those with one flagged, only 45% got useful support. That research is 17 years old, so we’re asking whether it still holds, and what it takes for an evaluation to lead somewhere. Join this webinar to explore: ➡️ What happens after an evaluation, and who follows up ➡️ What helps evaluators give honest, useful feedback to teachers ➡️ How evaluation connects to professional learning ➡️ How to bring stakeholders to the table to improve processes 🖥️ Register today: bit.ly/4BODmRt
