Why is Assessment Literacy Important?
Student success depends on three essential pieces: curriculum, assessment, and instruction. Curriculum is the plan for learning, and instruction is the process of learning. Assessment is the gathering of evidence to promote informed decision-making. Without data to inform educational decisions, decisions can turn into guess work or can be less effective. Assessment supports strong curriculum and instruction by providing data to show what strategies are successful and by helping educators target instruction to specific student needs. That targeted instruction increases student growth and success.
