The concept of “through-course” or “distributed summative assessment components” (e.g., assessment evidence collected over multiple points of time) has been discussed at several of the U.S. Department of Education-sponsored assessment hearings. This presentation will discuss how multiple types of assessment evidence can be used and aggregated to inform summative judgments. The presentation will address using aggregated information to evaluate students, teachers, and schools.
