We assess our students every day. But do we always know why? In this e-book, Erin Beard, content design coordinator on NWEA’s professional learning team, tells you everything you need to know about assessment empowerment, from what it is to exactly how to bring it to life in your classroom.

High-quality professional development experiences, like the data-driven solutions offered by NWEA, align curriculum, assessment, and instruction in a way that serves the unique needs of every school or district.

From the very beginning, working with NWEA’s professional learning team means experiences custom-built by expert educators—and an ongoing partnership that’s committed to better learning outcomes for your students.

With the right support from professional learning and an open dialogue with administrators from the very beginning, you can empower teachers to turn insights into action and improve student outcomes.

Robust, holistic professional development experiences are more than a “nice-to-have,” they’re an investment in your staff and students. See how ongoing professional learning can empower teachers and improve student outcomes.

By giving educators a chance to review what was and was not working, the space to create new plans, and the support to implement them, professional learning led to lasting change.

An assessment is only as valuable as the data it provides. But even the best data in the world won’t get your school or district very far if your teachers don’t know how to use it.
