2614: MAST Mysteries and Assessment Auditing Unlocked!

  • Instructor: Nichole Pieper 

This course strengthens educators’ assessment literacy by focusing on the design of high-quality, standards-aligned assessments that accurately measure student learning. Participants will examine formative, interim, and summative assessments; analyze rigor and depth of knowledge; and develop assessment tasks aligned to Montana Content Standards. A key component of the course is building understanding of the Montana Aligned Summative Testing (MAST) system, including test structure, sample question types, and how classroom assessments can support and complement MAST expectations. Educators will learn how to access, interpret, and apply MAST reports to identify instructional strengths, address learning gaps, and plan targeted re-teaching and instructional adjustments that support improved student achievement.
