Taming Assessments

Taming Assessments is a game of deductive reasoning where you play a teacher working with a few students who desperately need your help. They have fallen behind and you suspect with a key bit of assistance, they would blossom. But what do they need? Use various classroom assessments to dig through their knowledge and find the key to their success. This game was made in association with Liz and Ann at AccelearateLearning.Net.

Inquiry Team Simulator

The Inquiry Team Simulator is an educational tool for training school leaders in the Scaffolded Apprenticeship Model and the Inquiry Team Process of school leadership. We developed it with our good friends Liz and Ann at AccelearateLearning.Net It runs on our web servers but is free to anyone. It is set in New York City and uses NYCDOE terminology, but we in association with acceleratatelearning.net can build a custom version for your school district. Just send us a note.
