Example: GED

The GED is a standardized assessment in that it doesn't matter who takes the assessment or who is assessing it, but rather the results measure a specific skill accurately and reliably.

Example: Student Portfolios

Student portfolios are an excellent example of summative assessment that is completely student-generated. Students design, execute and present a final version for assessing. The student portfolio process is a learning experience that leads to a final assessment, but the process is more important that the final result.

Example: Presentation

This requires the student to directly demonstrate what they know and can do by public demonstration. The experience in itself is a learning experience for students and can be used as a means by which to assess what they have learned.

Example: IQ test

Norm-referenced assessments measures how individual students scored in relation to the "average" student. Student performance is statistically compared to a similar subgroup of students.

Example: SAT/ACT

The SAT/ACT are assessments that are given to millions of high school students nationwide each year.

Example: Chapter Test

Chapter Tests allow teachers to assess unit/chapter mastery of material at predictable times. This measure is most useful for teachers to ascertain whether or not students grasped concepts presented in small segments leading up to the end of the chapter.

Example: 3-2-1 Format

Students record 3 things they have learned following a lesson, 2 things they'd like to learn more about, and 1 question that persists after the lesson. This provides an assessment and learning experience that is structured so that students can provide their own understanding of material and summarizes their learning while continuing the learning process.

Example: Kahoot

Kahoots can be designed to maximize student engagement and fun in an informal fashion. Students respond immediately to questions and answers are aggregated instantaneously to display how students have replied.

Example: SBAC

The Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium designs a test which measures student progress in Grades 3-8 and in some cases, students may not progress to the next grade if they do not demonstrate acceptable academic progress and teachers may be held accountable for student progress.

Example: Padlet

An electronic platform for students to demonstrate what they have learned. It can be used to assess student's knowledge but also demonstrates learning as a series of steps to complete a visual representation.

Example: Exit Ticket

Exit Tickets are a device that teachers use to measure what a student has learned prior to leaving a classroom during one session. Teachers ask students a specific question or give a task to complete before they may leave the classroom. This informs the teacher where they must move the student at the next session academically so is a formative assessment.

Example: WIDA Screener

The WIDA Screener is an English language proficiency assessment given to new students to determine whether or not they are English Learners (ELs).

Example: WIDA ACCESS for ALL

Student results are compared to specific standards designed by WIDA.

Example: Classroom discussion

Classroom discussions happen regularly on an ongoing basis in academic settings. The instruction provided in discussion can be specifically tailored for individual classes/groups of students, is tied to what is happening instructionally and which results in a formative outcome which informs future instruction.

Example: Think, Pair, Share

Students generate ideas, partner with another individual and share their conclusions about a learning experience. This experience is initiated by a teacher as a means to find where students are in the learning process and gives students an immediate form of feedback.

Example: MAPS

By setting and meeting/not meeting academic goals using MAPS, teachers and students can predict how students might score on high-stakes testing. Data is compared to nationally-normed peer results.
