Rod Roy Skier Levels
While we feel the Achievement Level concept is invaluable, do not over-emphasize the importance of the evaluation. Instead, emphasize to your students that improving their skills is the ultimate goal – and that the achievement levels are simply a “benchmark” to highlight the progress of their skills.
