<h3 class="fs-5">Embedding assessment in the learning process</h3>
<p>Performance tasks are the culmination of curriculum units that enable students to demonstrate what they know and can do. They are an extension of learning as students apply their acquired knowledge and skills in a real-world setting.</p>
<h3 class="fs-5">Enabling a greater diversity of students to demonstrate what they know, fostering anti-racism proficiency</h3>
<p>With the increasing diversity of students in our public schools, well designed performance assessments provide opportunities to showcase the knowledge and skills of historically marginalized groups and cultivate skills for all students such as critical consciousness and anti-racism.</p>
<h3 class="fs-5">Supporting all students in demonstrating knowledge and building skills to create a more equitable future</h3>
<p>Well designed performance assessments provide opportunities to showcase the brilliance of minoritized students and challenge all students to cultivate competencies for creating a better future such as critical consciousness and anti-racism.</p>
<h3 class="fs-5">Giving teachers and parents a more timely and complete portrayal of student learning</h3>
<h3 class="fs-5">Giving students, educators, and parents a more timely and complete portrayal of student learning</h3>
<p>Performance tasks provide rich information to facilitate immediate feedback on what a student knows and can do. This data enables teachers to address learning gaps in more timely ways. A portfolio of student work derived from performance assessments within and across academic years provides an in-depth view of how student learning is progressing over time and how knowledge is building towards proficiency of content standards and skills.</p>

<h2 class="h2 fw-bolder">How to Work with ECP</h2>
<p> There are unlimited ways to engage with ECP! Here are some possibilities:
</div>
<div class="grid-container">
<div class="grid-item"><h2 class="fw-bolder">District Leaders</h2></div>
<div class="grid-item"><h2 class="fw-bolder">School Leaders</h2></div>
<div class="grid-item"><h2 class="fw-bolder">Educators and Community Members</h2></div>
<div class="grid-item">
<p> District leaders can adopt the ECP data dashboard and use it to inform district improvement efforts. The district would administer student and teacher perception surveys, and the ECP team would collect all of the other data required for the dashboard analysis. ECP will also assist in the analysis of the data and its implications for improvement strategies. </p>
<p> Districts may choose to build their own data dashboard using any components they want from the ECP dashboard, as well as any other components they identify as important to their own school communities. The ECP team will facilitate this customization process. </p>
<p> For districts interested in joining the Massachusetts Consortium for Innovative Education Assessment, ECP will build their capacity to make this possible. </p>
</div>
<div class="grid-item">
<p>If a school or district leader wants to launch the creation of performance assessments across an academic department, a grade level, or a school, ECP will provide the guidance and resources to do this successfully.</p>
<p>School leaders can administer ECPs student or educator perception surveys as standalone data collection instruments. These surveys have been rigorously field-tested, and the ECP team will offer support in survey data analysis.</p>
<p>The ECP team can assist educational leaders in developing team-oriented “walkthroughs” as measures of school performance, and support the analysis of the data collected. </p>
</div>
<div class="grid-item">
<p>Individual teachers who want to use high quality performance assessments for their students can access any of the numerous performance assessments that have already been developed and validated. If they want to design their own, the ECP team will provide guidance and coaching.</p>
<p>ECP is available to work with educators who are interested in developing their own protocols for data use in professional learning communities or as part of other school improvement efforts.</p>
<p>If families and community members want to learn more about assessment and accountability, ECP will give presentations that can be easily understood by people who do not work in the field of education. </p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="py-5">
<p class="grid-item text-center h3">
Our work together can begin with the ECP team talking with you or your group
about the need for an alternative approach to assessing student learning and school quality,
and about the free tools we offer.
</p>
</div>
<div>
<h3 >
The Education Commonwealth Project provides free resources to rethink how school quality and student learning are measured.

<p> The free and open-source tools are available to anyone for immediate download. </p>
<p> Maybe you are an educator interested in trying out a performance assessment in your classroom. Maybe youre an elementary school principal interested in understanding the sense of belonging that exists at your school using field-tested perception surveys of teachers and students. Maybe youre a parent of a school-aged child who is interested in how to get a fuller story of your childs school quality. Maybe youre a district superintendent interested in how to use other DESE data, beyond MCAS scores, to advocate for the needs of your schools. </p>
<p>Whatever your role, whatever your reason, ECP is making these tools available to you. </p>
<p>When you agree to the open-source licensing (in which you agree you dont intend to capitalize on our tools), youll register with ECP. If you indicate that youre open to hearing from us, we may reach out to you.</p>
