How do I tell if my students are growing??

Different Types of Assessment  Observations  Portfolios  Tests

Observations  Oral Reports  Debates  Experiments  Projects  Anecdotal Notes

Portfolios  Writing folders  Art collections  Math puzzles

Tests  Pop Quizzes  Open-book tests  End-of-unit tests  Standardized tests

Performance Assessment  “Testing methods that require students to create an answer or product that demonstrates their knowledge and skills”. Conducting experiments Writing extended essays Doing mathematical computations

Common Features  Students’ construction rather than selection of a response  Direct observation of a student’s behavior on tasks  Illumination of students’ learning and thinking process along with their answer.

2 Main Terms  Performance A student’s active generation of a response that is observable either directly or indirectly via a permanent product.  Authentic The nature of the task and context in which the assessment occurs is relevant and represents “real world” pro

Validity  5 Internal Characteristics Have meaning for student and teacher and motivate high performance Require the demonstration of complex cognition, applicable to important problem areas. Exemplifly current standards of content or subject matter quality

Minimize the effects of ancillary skills that are irrelevant to the focus of the assessment Possess explicit standards for rating or judgement

How does the Assessment “Behave”  How does it rate to other measures of similar construct?  Can the measure predict future performance?  Does the assessment adequately cover the content domain?

Caution  Can have ill effects Does it discriminate against various groups of individuals? Is it used to evaluate others (parents/teachers) who are not directly assessed by the test?

Scoring  Must be well articulated  CLEAR  RUBRIC

Questions  In a multiple choice question,  the options control the rigor  In an open-ended question,  the rubric controls the rigor.

Little Red Riding Hood

This story is mostly about: A. Two boys fighting B. A girl playing in the woods C. Little Red Riding Hood’s adventures with a wolf D. A wolf in the forest

This story is mostly about:  A. Little Red Riding Hood’s journey through the woods  B. The pain of losing your grandmother  C. Everything is not always what it seems  D. Fear of wolves

What about my gut???  Anecdotal notes Classroom observations/participation  Student is answering questions….never did that before  Student is more engaged Warm ups

Next Week  How do I reach my bubble kids?  How do we use these assessments to tell if we are reaching them.  What if we are??  What if we are not?????  What is our plan??
