Enhancing an Instructional Unit with Powerful Classroom Assessments Curriculum Topic Study: Adult Content Knowledge Instructional Implications Concepts and Specific Ideas Research on Student Learning How this research relates to the relevant Core Concept and WASL Evidences of Learning. (see example handout) 7

    8. Hands-on activity related to the core concept Group work to answer a set of Essential Questions surrounding the activity (see example handout) 8

    9. Participants read the scenario and write out responses to the 10 questions The scoring process for each item is then explored through Anchor Papers (see example handout)
