Last year, in my Professional
Learning Community, we set goals for student improvement, using North West
Evaluation Assessment (NWEA). It was a struggle, as it was our first year of
implementation. I was wondering if anyone else had used the student goal
setting for student improvement. If so how did it go for you? Also did you have
negative growth and if so how did you approach the student with their negative
growth? As we had some students with negative growth and teachers were
wondering how should they approach their students with this information?
