2. To what extent are the assessment practices aligned with the culture and or interests of students. Provide concrete examples?
3. Explain how the teacher uses assessment data to provide feedback to students. How does the feedback align with the lesson objectives or the individual learning goals of students?
4. How are assessment data collected, managed, and or reported on? Explain how digital technology is used in the assessment-feedback loop.
Using questioning (Domain 3b )
1. To what extent does the teacher use both low cognitive questions and those that elicit challenge or critical thinking? Provide concrete examples to substantiate your analysis.

5. What evidence did you capture that shows students’ ability to reflect on their learning?
6. What specific insights have you gained regarding the importance of engaging students in learning to influence your future instruction. Provide concrete examples of insights (no more than three) along with an explanation of how the insights will inform your instruction. Include our observation notes.
Summary
Based on your observation, analysis, and interview notes, what insights have you gained regarding the importance of engaging students in learning by using questions, prompts, discussion and assessment in instruction to influence your future instruction . Align each insight with the appropriate Touro Candidate Learning Outcome (name specific outcomes). Provide concrete examples of insights (no more than three) along with an explanation of how the insights will inform your instruction. Include observation and interview your Notes.
