Culturally Responsive Assessment: Goals, Challenges, and Implications

In addition, the webinar introduced concepts of culturally relevant and responsive pedagogy; discussed the implications of cultural responsiveness for assessment at the state, district, school, and classroom levels; and shared an example of how culturally responsive assessment practice is being used to honor and sustain the social, cultural and linguistic backgrounds of Native Hawaiian students.
