1
-Traditional-Old Fashioned Way of Testing -1920’s-30’s-known as “new” scientific method
2
Includes Four Types -Multiple Choice -True/False -Matching -Short Answer –Key is to match assessment methods with achievement targets
3
Four Step Process Det. Selected Resp. Assess Why? –What is the overall purpose of this assessment Assess What? –What are our primary learning targets (goals and objectives) for the lesson Assess How? –Identify knowledge and reasoning learning targets,How important is this?
4
When to Use Selected Response Assessment Assessing knowledge-level learning Some patterns of reasoning
5
Other Contextual Conditions Students can read English well enough to understand the problems The content to be assessed is broad You have a large number of students
7
Creating the Test Identify where you are going with it. What are you going to focus on?
8
Give students the list of the learning objectives. –Tells students what to focus on with their reading and studying. A schedule for the unit can help, so that students know what major points will be covered each day.
9
Give students a list of the types of sample questions that you will be asking on the test. A test is not about trying to fool students into picking the wrong answer, but rather to see if they have learned what you want them to learn.
10
Provide Feedback For students to improve, they must know what and how they are being asked to improve. One way of doing this to have them assess themselves a few days before the test. Have them create a study plan based on what they have not learned yet.
11
Conclusion Students need to be aware of what they have learned, and what they are yet to learn. Consistent Selected Response Assessment can be very effective for this, but only if used correctly. To use it correctly, the objectives of the unit must be suitable to the test, other wise there is no point in giving the test.
12
Learning Targets: 1. Description of Selected Response Assessment 2. When to Use Selected Response 3. How to Use Selected Response for Student Learning
13
Propositions Selected response assessment consists of multiple choice, true/false, matching, and short answer questions. Selected response assessment is used to measure knowledge mastery and reasoning proficiency. Teachers should communicate learning targets to students and ask them to identify what they believe is the day’s central proposition. Teachers should guide students to reflect on their answers by determining why a wrong answer is wrong and what could make a weak or wrong answer better. Teachers should share test plans with students to help guide student goal- setting and self-assessment of strengths and weaknesses. Teachers should lead focused lessons that include time for students to create probable test questions and practice answering them. Teachers should provide time for students to engage in self-reflection.
14
Multiple Choice Which of the following is NOT a type of selected response assessment? A. True/false B. Short answer C. Multiple choice D. Essay Why?.........
15
True/False T/FSelected response can be used to assess knowledge mastery, reasoning proficiency, performance skills, and the ability to create products. Why?.........
16
Matching Each of these student activities is used to evaluate and improve student achievement. Match the activity to the question it best answers. Where am I going?A. Students attempt to identify a lesson’s central learning proposition. Where am I now?B. Students create probable test questions and practice answering them. How can I close the gap?C. After looking at a teacher’s test plan, students self-assess to identify their current strengths and weaknesses.
17
Short Answer Contrary to popular belief/current stereotype, all assessment types can be used for student learning. This includes extended written response, performance, personal communication, portfolios and _____________________ assessments.
