My Introduction My Name is Tifany Chambers

An explanation of which MAED Program Learning Outcome(s) most intrigues you, and how that outcome you selected will contribute to your career The MAED program learning outcome that most intrigued me is: To design a variety of evidence-based assessments used for ongoing evaluation of student progress, and to guide teacher and learner decision making. The outcome I selected will contribute to my career because it will assist in shaping the relationship instructors and students will have. It will build on both parties taking responsibility for improving on all areas that pose a challenge to us all. This outcome would allow for all involved to be constantly assessed to show what they have learned and what they need to learn.

An explanation of your understanding of assessment and why it is important in education (without researching). My understanding of assessment is that it is a tool which advises instructors what areas his/her students have knowledge in as well as what level a student is at academically.
