“Navigating the Autism Classroom: A Support Series for Teachers”
Assessment in autism classrooms
should be meaningful, manageable, and grounded in evidence. In this webinar,
we’ll explore how to use evidence-based assessment tools and strategies to
truly understand student progress and guide instruction. We’ll look at both
formal and informal approaches, and how to make assessment a natural part of
your teaching routine. Ideal for teachers who want to feel more confident and
effective in their assessment practices.
