5. Continuum Protocol http://www.nsrfharmony.org/free-resources/protocols/a-z

6. Continuum Protocol Teachers’ informal knowledge and assessment of student learning is the most reliable means of measuring student growth and should play the largest role in assessing students. Formal, standardized assessment of student learning is the most reliable means of measuring student growth and should play the largest role in assessing students.

7. Continuum Protocol If the test is a good test, then teaching to the test is just good teaching. Teaching to the test is detrimental to student learning.

8. Continuum Protocol Regular assessment ensures that English Language Learners are not left behind in the teaching of content and English. Regular assessment is an impediment to ensuring that English Language Learners learn content area material and English.

9. Continuum Protocol Student achievement data is a good indicator of teacher quality. Student achievement data doesn’t reflect teaching quality.

10. Continuum follow-up What can you learn from data? What can’t you learn…?  So what are the leadership implications? In what ways can data be useful in schools? …be misused in schools?  So what are the leadership implications?
