Five years after the publication of "Leaders of Their Own Learning," EL Education is back with a new companion guide to help you tackle the common challenges of student-engaged assessment. This unique, student-centered approach to assessment equips and compels students to understand goals for their learning and growth, track their progress toward those goals, and take responsibility for reaching them. EL Education has more than 25 years of experience supporting school transformation through student-engaged assessment. With their new book, "The Leaders of Their Own Learning Companion," they have harvested the best tools and wisdom from schools across the country to help you hone student-led assessment practices in your classroom and school. This book: (1) Identifies the common challenges of implementing each of the eight interrelated student-engaged assessment practices from "Leaders of Their Own Learning," and provides strategies and tools for tackling them; (2) Offers practical tips for school leaders; and (3) Deepens your learning with 46 videos and an online toolbox. "The Leaders of Their Own Learning Companion" is designed for teachers and leaders of all grade levels and no prior knowledge of the original "Leaders of Their Own Learning" is necessary to make the most of this book. [For the companion book, "Leaders of Their Own Learning: Transforming Schools through Student-Engaged Assessment," see ED598805.]
