Welcome to the 2017 KORCOS International Education Conference at Chadwick International. Please browse the many wonderful presentations and jobalikes that are being offered and start creating your schedule. We look forward to welcoming you on Saturday, November 18.
In this presentation, we will explore how I design instruction based on continual assessment and reflection (extending from logs, student portfolios, and feedback circles) to more accurately understand and interpret individual student growth and progress compared to individual language levels, strengths, and challenges.
