We are planning to run this TTT a little differently -- as a workshop -- where after a brief introduction, you will be invited to pair up with another teacher to create skills post for each other, then recommend your partner for that skill. You'll get more clear about what this new assessment tool is all about by creating and recommending one yourself. Then we can award it to you.
