Drafting Talking Points by Ava Spindt

2024-04-26 15:01:42 UTC

All students should take the SATs.

That an assessment could be a form of a project.

2024-04-26 15:01:49 UTC

Short and often

2024-04-26 15:01:52 UTC

A few questions (4 or 5) on no more than a half-page of paper, at least twice a week

2024-04-26 15:02:02 UTC

On going assessment kills creativity and only focuses on standardize testing.

2024-04-26 15:02:04 UTC

Assessments should include a time for students to evaluate the teacher.

Teach to the test

2024-04-26 15:02:11 UTC

2024-04-26 15:02:13 UTC

Grades should be replaced when students show proficiency

Quizzes

2024-04-26 15:02:16 UTC

Weekly quizzes are enough to know what student have learned.

2024-04-26 15:02:19 UTC

Assessments show what students are capable of.

2024-04-26 15:02:20 UTC

I believe in math that we get stuck in only one way to assess, when we could be taking opportunities to assess criteria such as thinking and problem solving rather than getting the answer correct.

Ongoing assessment

2024-04-26 15:02:27 UTC

There needs to be more than one assessment each class period to use to evaluate student need in order to differentiate instruction.

Ongoing assessments should contain an element of student self-evaluation

2024-04-26 15:02:40 UTC

2024-04-26 15:02:43 UTC

Ongoing assessments should be increasing in rigor

2024-04-26 15:02:48 UTC

Students need to get the correct answer to show they have a proficient understanding of a standard.

Quality on going Assessment?

2024-04-26 15:02:50 UTC

Its ok that a student shows basic understanding just once? right? I don't have to KEEP assessing do i? bc thats alot of work, and grading?

2024-04-26 15:02:56 UTC

Tests show how smart a student is.

Ongoing Assessments

2024-04-26 15:03:02 UTC

One ongoing assessment can take place over multiple days.

Ongoing assessment

2024-04-26 15:03:03 UTC

Students should only reflect immediately about their assessments

ACHS

2024-04-26 15:03:04 UTC

Ongoing assessments should have an aligning rubric and exemplar

Ongoing assessment should be done frequently during the learning period.

2024-04-26 15:03:10 UTC

There is a point where self assessing with performance level descriptors takes away from learning. Frequent, until defined, seems excessive.

2024-04-26 15:03:17 UTC

2024-04-26 15:03:19 UTC

Formative assessments (board work, group work, and authentic practices as well as questions asked by students) can sometimes be more informative about student’s learning than the final assessment.

2024-04-26 15:03:27 UTC

Why don’t we have a class that is all about process, debate, and problem solving, so that kids can develop the professional skills needed to work through problems without the added pressure of a test.

2024-04-26 15:04:08 UTC

Ongoing assessment is difficult to implement

2024-04-26 15:04:20 UTC

Students should show proficiency when it comes to assessments.

Lecturing supports all students because they all have the opportunity to get the information & ask questions to clarify what they don't understand.

2024-04-26 15:04:32 UTC

2024-04-26 15:04:46 UTC

Free response assessments give more information about student skills than do MC assessments.

Ongoing Assessment

2024-04-26 15:04:48 UTC

On going assessment does not necessarily have to be a written response. It can be anything that allows you to inform your instruction.

Ongoing statement

2024-04-26 15:04:52 UTC

Once a student shows proficiency on a standard, they shouldn’t have to again. They should now be showing advanced thinking.

Assessments need to take an hour/ the entire class period.

2024-04-26 15:05:10 UTC

The only way to asses a student is with paper and pencil

2024-04-26 15:05:26 UTC

Sped kids should automatically be exempt from testing, they are tested enough and we already have the data to show growth or not
