About this Event
Description
Students of all ages are excited by opportunities for hands-on learning and play, but what happens when the fun is over and it’s time to finish the project or assess how much students learned?
This workshop at MuseumLab starts by exploring the learning that is actually happening as students tinker, explore, and create regardless of the actual product created. We then dive into strategies for capturing that learning in real time, reducing or even eliminating the need for additional assessment. We close by looking at curriculum-based materials and assessments for older learners to explore strategies for transforming them into interactive experiences that reveal so much more than just right answers.
*Note: Complimentary parking information will be provided to registrants prior to the event.
