Advanced Proficiency Workshop
"Shift your paradigm: What are you really assessing?"

Description: BEC is offering Advanced Proficiency-based workshop sessions for high school Math, Social Studies, Science and Language Arts teachers. Participants will learn how to create their own model of proficiency for the subjects they teach.

Participants will leave the workshop with the following:

 *   Templates for identifying and streamlining standards
 *   Templates for creating rubrics that allow for differentiation
