I am interested in hearing perspectives from other educators. What is your school policy around missing a test assessment? Do students have a chance to make up this assessment? Are teachers required to re-create a new test or do they use the same one?

3 Burning Questions

How can we implement standards-based grading (SBG) to accommodate the AP, IB, and Common Core curricula?
How can we respect the existing frameworks of both the AP and IB curricula without making changes that might detract from them?
What best practices guide the implementation of these answers?

Should we completely remove or create a balance between high-stakes assessments and authentic assessments since our students will still get to meet high-stakes assessments in universities in the meantime?

2. Authentic assessments may increase in students, the ability to problem-solve. Do teachers have the problem-solving abilities enough to recognise or develop such in students?

Authentic assessments may lead to the need to develop more skills or understandings. How will teachers figure this out?
