While furthering my understanding of Curriculum-Based Measurement, I found the teacher trainings to be insightful. The trainings were found on the Easy CBM website, and offered training session videos along with a simple test to assess what you have learned. Though none of the the assessments were challenging, it raised awareness to common mistakes made when performing curriculum-based measurements. It also provided a concrete video with examples to see and interpret. I think they do have their use for the classroom, and would potentially use them in my classroom. However, as a special education teacher, I think it would have to be with the right classroom and with the right student to be effective. The main goal that I would have if I chose to use this in my future classroom, would be for consistent data. This data could be used to help write and assess a students achievement in regards to their IEP.
