Exploring Assessment in the Family Studies Classroom

In this episode we start a conversation with teacher extraordinaire and self-proclaimed assessment geek Heather Bamford.  Heather is a Family Studies Teacher at John Fraser Secondary School, who has been teaching in the Peel Board for 19 years. Heather is also in the role of Cross-Curricular Head of Assessment and Culturally Relevant and Responsive Pedagogy.  Many of us know Heather as a long-time workshop presenter at OFSHEEA conferences and as a co-facilitator of the Leading Fashion Lab workshops.  We are so excited to have Heather start the conversation around assessment practices that are grounded in equity and inclusion for all students.  This episode is part one of two (or maybe three!).  Our podcast team is so excited to share this with you - we are all becoming assessment geeks after spending time with Heather.  We hope you enjoy and learn as much as we did.
