“If my players aren’t getting A’s, I’m going to get FIRED.”

“teachers begin by dividing the concepts and skills that they
want students to learn into smaller learning units.”
“Following instruction on the unit, teachers administer an
assessment...”
“Based on the assessment results, students are
sorted, ranked, and assigned grades.”
The way we do it

“The assessment signifies to students the
end of the unit and the end of the time
they need to spend working on the unit...

“The assessment signifies to students the
end of the unit and the end of the time
they need to spend working on the unit...
....their one and only chance to
demonstrate what they have

each unit....

“...instead of using assessments only as
evaluation devices that mark the end of
each unit....

...“just-in-time” correction prevents

means to vary and differentiate
their instruction in order to better
meet students' individual learning
needs.”

Gestalt is a psychology term which means "unified whole". It refers
to theories of visual perception developed by German

These theories attempt to describe how people tend to
organize visual elements into groups or unified wholes
