Additional Assessment Resources

 

Assessment results can be used to plan for the professional development of theatre education staff. In fact, changing education programming with solid assessment results is a very powerful way to organize meaningful professional development opportunities. Ongoing professional development that is supported by continuous feedback from assessment results is the new model for keeping up with the progress of one's program, the discipline of theatre and the field of education.
