A DEEP DIVE ON AUTHENTIC ASSESSMENTS

December 3, 2025
4:00 - 5:00 PM EST

Discover how story-centered assessments can transform the way learners show mastery. In this deep dive, the Story Arts team explores how meaningful, authentic assessments make thinking visible and turn growth into story.

Together, Eleah Anderson, Lana Toler, and Lauren Morris will walk you through:

• The Story of Mastery Framework — how story can turn learning into purposeful, real-world work.
• Real-world roles and challenges that connect learning to careers, purpose, and impact.
• Authentic assessments that move beyond busywork and spark creativity, curiosity, and ownership.

This session is designed for K–12 guides in every subject who want their learners creating, not just completing.
