AN ESSENTIAL GUIDE AND ORGANIZATIONAL TOOL FOR TEACHERS

One step at a time, QUIO helps teachers arrive at an accurate assessment of student learning that reveals more than a letter grade. Learning Maps show the overall picture of learning in one subject area for an entire term. The Learning Map includes learning standards and descriptions of performance that, in turn, are aligned with evidence of learning.
