Formative assessment is one of the best ways to increase student learning and enhance teacher quality. But effective formative assessment is not part of most classrooms. Connie Moss and Susan Brookhart define formative assessment as an active, continual process in which teachers and students work together to gather evidence of learning.

The key to making today's lesson meaningful? Learning targets. Written from students' point of view, a learning target describes a lesson-sized chunk of information and skills that students will come to know deeply. Each lesson's learning target connects to the next lesson's target, enabling students to master a coherent series of challenges.

Revolutionize the walkthrough to focus on the endgame of teaching: student learning. Authors Connie Moss and Susan Brookhart present the proven practice of formative walkthroughs that ask and answer questions that are specific to what the student is learning and doing.
