Assessment determines future teaching practice.

# data[].attributes.body
Assessment can be used at any point during or after a lesson to determine what student know, what they need to know and where they are at in a unit of work. Enabling educators to see students progression to plan and support these students to provide opportunities for student to succeed.

# data[].attributes.body
Assessment at first glance can seem very complex but is a very powerful tool. Assessment (for/of/as) needs to be embedded regularly within your teaching practice to inform students current understanding, to inform future teaching and is essential as part of data collection.

# data[].attributes.body
There are many forms of assessment. Each form of assessment has a place within learning.
Assessment allows educators to map student progress and success, and further allows them to plan and differentiate future lessons for to promote optimal student success.

Assessment is not a dirty word.
Teachers should create an environment whereby students aren't afraid of being assessed but can develop an enthusiasm to try their best.

# data[].attributes.body
You really have to remember things about each student during lesson to be able to assess the as learning and cater for them during the next lesson.

# data[].attributes.body
Formative and diagnostic assessment is arguably the most important form of assessment, because without appropriate formative assessment you cannot plan appropriate learning opportunities and differentiation, and as such summative assessment would not be a true indication of student capacity

# data[].attributes.body
Each form of assessment (for, of and as) requires data collection that informs different areas of the learning process. Overall, authentic assessment relies on a range of data collection that is critically analysed in order to plan relevant and rich learning experiences.

# data[].attributes.body
There are various types of assessment that each student responds to differently. It is the responsibility of the teacher to utilise an array assessment strategies to ensure they allow each student the opportunity to display their knowledge on the topic at hand.

That there are loads of assessment opportunities within a lesson that you don't even realise. Also, marking takes up so much time you wish you hadn't set that much assessable work.

Assessment is a multifaceted process. It involves feedback to. There are different forms (as/of/for), used to suit specific purposes. It can show the teacher what the student has learnt + what they still need to work on. Assessment and feedback can take place by the teacher, another peer or by the student themselves.

Formative assessment is a useful to assess what students can and can't do in the context of the learning process. It can help teachers to establish appropriate, achievable, challenging and meaningful learning goals.

Engaging Assessment involving peer marking and feedback can be a great way to assess the assessors understanding.

Types: Formative, summative. Of learning, for learning and as learning

Curriculum: Everywhere

Success: A student moved from level 4 to level 8 in PM Readers in kindergarten - Josh's greatest success to date.
Opportunities: Able to see students move across the continuum and learn skills that enable them to be better people in society.

# data[].attributes.body
TYPES: formative, summative
Formal/informal

# data[].attributes.body
- OF, AS and FOR learning
- Teachers assess their students everyday!
- I have seen teachers place pressure on their students when conducting an assessment (which I am not about!)
- Success: conducting a science 'forces' assessment in a Kindergarten classroom. It was made fun and engaging.

# data[].attributes.body
Types: FOR, AS, OF, Formative, Summative

# data[].attributes.body
Types: For, As and Of.
Place in the curriculum: Assessment can be used in tandem with the syllabus for the teacher to understand what the students know and what they need to know.
It helps teachers plan for the future.

Types: formative, summative, FOR, AS, OF Learning, formal and informal
Success stories: formative assessment of knowledge of nouns, was able to determine a weakness in this area and address it
Opportunities: continual formative assessment throughout the day, in every KLA, as students do activities

opportunity to know the strengths and weakness' of students
assessment is an ongoing process

For, of and as learning.

Assessment is consistent throughout the curriculum and is necessary when planning from the curriculum.

Success- Being able to successfully identify what the student knows and is able to do. Failure- Not carrying out meaningful assessment or reflecting on the assessment data.

Strategies: observations, work samples, standardised testing, on-going, student self-evaluation/reflection

# data[].attributes.body
Formative and Summative
Assessment for learning
Assessment as learning
Assessment of learning

Can be used to assess students at the end or during their learning.

# data[].attributes.body
- Formative, Summative
- Central in everything we do as educators.
- Failures: sometimes assessment is tacked on at the end, rather than built into the experience (rich assessment).
- Opportunities for assessment are everywhere!
- Success: being able to assess students' abilities in an environment that motivates students to achieve without discouraging them when they don't
- Connected to all the AITSL standards
