Classroom Goal Setting
Twenty-four hours after testing, teachers receive class reports.. It is helpful to look at the goal area median scores in order to honor the students for areas with the strongest performance. Then classes will want to choose the lowest goal area score as a class goal.
Classes whose teachers post the class goal, discuss it with the students, and look up the goal range in DesCartes to inform their instruction typically make greater progress throughout the year.
