Summary
This episode is sponsored by Teq. One of the biggest challenges in schools right now is capacity. Educators are asked to do more, often with new tools, and very little support. Teq helps by combining classroom technology like SMART Boards and STEM resources with professional learning that respects educators’ time and reality. It’s support that makes technology usable, not overwhelming. Learn more at Teq.com . In this episode, I’m joined by Rachel Lemansky to unpack the 3 biggest misconceptions about authentic assessment and what it actually requires to move beyond compliance and into real student growth. From process over product, to UDL and accessibility, to the metacognitive reflection we’re all tempted to cut when time runs short, we break down what makes assessment truly meaningful (and human). You’ll walk away with practical examples, a fresh lens on AI’s role in student work, and a farm-to-table framework that makes authentic assessment stick. And yes… there’s beef stew involved. Buen provecho!
