Chapter 2: Mastery

This chapter was about how to measure the students’ mastery of the material. The two suggestions were to have multiple assessments and to track a couple of big projects over time. The best way to know what the students should master is to check the standards of the state. Also consulting colleagues, list-serves, curriculum guides, and the textbook are a few suggestions. This impacts me as a teacher by setting the goals of the lesson by the standards and developing a way to assess the students’ mastery of the material. This impacts my students by making them more prepared to meet the standard if I have taught them with the standard in mind.
