Quality School Line is our free quarterly newsletter full of tips, examples, and suggestions for both classroom teachers and administrators. Sally Duncan, a PQ Systems consultant and seminar leader specializing in education, assembles every issue of this newsletter to help educators gain usable knowledge of quality improvement tools for use in their classrooms.

Here’s what you’ll find in tomorrow’s issue of Quality School Line:

  • Teaching a dog to sing: The value of formative assessments
  • Sally answers a teacher’s question: “Do formative assessments really work?”
  • Meet Sally in Chicago! Sally will be leading a presentation entitled, “Twenty Minutes Once a Week — Improve Students’ Knowledge of Math Standards” at the 2009 AdvancED Conference on March 29-31, 2009.
