Are there instructions to see the file that need to be followed besides just clicking the link? Thanks! Marisa Melissa–
I’m trying to look at this pass, but it just sits forever on the screen with the quicktime logo, but doesn’t appear to be doing anything.

Are there instructions to see the file that need to be followed besides just clicking the link?

Thanks!

I am currently teaching in the elementary school setting, but I am always looking for ways around grading all those papers. More and more we are being encouraged to find other means of assessment and I love your explanation of “The Muddiest Point.” You have written out a clear description of the process and how to incorporate it into any classroom. I feel I could take your article and create my own “Muddiest Point” part of the day, even with fifth graders. My main concern is the ending. Your index like card with the main points of “The Muddiest Point” was a great touch and I love that you have explored the teacher and student sides of this concept, but feel that there is not enough of a wrap-up at the end. Maybe you could include a few variations of this alternative assessment, such as “Write 3 things you learned today” or “What would you like to learn more about?” I also think that you could have given more examples of alternative assessments instead of just the one. Under the heading “What are Alternative Assessment Strategies?” I would also include a bullet of examples to give the reader something concrete to work with and then go into your details about “The Muddiest Point” example.
