Description
Students learn in a variety of ways, from logical to kinesthetic to auditory. Teachers are expected to differentiate instructional methods to match learning styles, but are rarely asked to differentiate assessment methods to align with the different instructional methods. It is important to provide an opportunity for students to be tested in a way that matches their learning style. This presentation includes how to develop a method of assessment that not only fits the state learning criteria, but also allows students to tap into their innate creativity in a manner that also suits their learning needs.
