Ex: An end of unit test in Envisions.

An assessment given at the end of a math topic or section of topics that measures students' understanding of a mathmatical concept, such as fractions, taught over several lessons. This assessment OF learning provides essential feedback to the teacher in terms of mastery demonstrated by the students.]]> 2021-10-31 16:12:46 UTC https://padlet.com/freelml/cxe5jc6ndsrqes4v/wish/1856888136 freelml https://padlet.com/freelml/cxe5jc6ndsrqes4v/wish/1856897805 A process internal to instruction that offers results in a timely fashion that inform and improve instruction; also provides feedback to students.

Ex: A three question exit ticket given after 2 lessons about fractions.

An exit ticket allows students an opportunity to demonstrate what they understand so far. It is low stakes, may not even be graded, but it lets the teacher know how to plan for/adjust the next lessons. Returned exit tickets let the students know what to review. The teacher is able to gather data on which to base future lessons in this assessment FOR learning .]]> 2021-10-31 16:20:11 UTC https://padlet.com/freelml/cxe5jc6ndsrqes4v/wish/1856897805 freelml https://padlet.com/freelml/cxe5jc6ndsrqes4v/wish/1856914346 A test given to large numbers of students within and across districts and states.

Ex: NAEP annual assessment

The NAEP is a common measure of student achievement (assessment OF learning), given to sample populations nationally, and used to assess what US children know and can do in various subjst areas. Also known as the Nation's Report Card, the NAEP provides annual academic data about groups of students with similar demographical characteristics.]]> 2021-10-31 16:32:32 UTC https://padlet.com/freelml/cxe5jc6ndsrqes4v/wish/1856914346 freelml https://padlet.com/freelml/cxe5jc6ndsrqes4v/wish/1856925954 Data collected without any specific planning.

Ex: A four conrners reflection at the close of a lesson.

A quick check in with students near the end of a lesson allows students to reflect on their learning or progress (AS learning). It may also provide an opportunity to talk to others about their progress. The teachers asks students to reflect on their understanding and connect their progress to one of four categories: 1- Novice, I am just learning and need more help please.  2- Apprentice, I am almost there, I need more practice. 3-  Master, I've got it & I can do it on my own! 4- Expert, I am a pro and can teach others. It is student centered beacuse the children use metacognition to reflect on and express their own progress. ]]> 2021-10-31 16:42:12 UTC https://padlet.com/freelml/cxe5jc6ndsrqes4v/wish/1856925954 freelml https://padlet.com/freelml/cxe5jc6ndsrqes4v/wish/1860711709 A test with results that have consequences for students, teachers, schools, or districts.

Ex: NWEA MAP test

The MAP test is given 3 times a year, and provides teachers with current levels, growth data, comparission data (district & average achievement), and a projected future achievment including SBAC performance. It is an assessment FOR learning when considering the student's RIT score and present levels on the learning continuum.

At the end of the year, MAP data can be an assessement OF learning when considering growth and mastery from fall to spring.]]> 2021-11-06 00:43:29 UTC https://padlet.com/freelml/cxe5jc6ndsrqes4v/wish/1871011485 freelml https://padlet.com/freelml/cxe5jc6ndsrqes4v/wish/1872261750 A measure whose results are reported in reference to established criteria, such as standards, rather than by ranking student performance.

Ex: teacher/grade level/department created assessment 

A formative assessment created by or agreed upon by a group of teachers who teach the same content is an assessment FOR learning when the results are used to guide instruction. Common assessments are most effective when the results are analyzed and reflected upon by the group af teachers in a setting such as a PLC.]]> 2021-11-07 07:22:55 UTC https://padlet.com/freelml/cxe5jc6ndsrqes4v/wish/1872359362 freelml https://padlet.com/freelml/cxe5jc6ndsrqes4v/wish/1872395983 Collection of data as part of the instructional routine

Ex: an exit ticket/reflection after a lesson

An exit ticket completed by the students after a lesson is a helpful part of the lesson cycle/collection of data because the students have the opportunity to practice the concept/skill in a low stakes situation and get timely feedback. When provided an opportunity to reflect on their understanding, this assessment AS learning allows students to practice metacognotion and be an active stakeholder in the instructional cycle. Timely feedback is essential in this type of instructional assessment as learning.]]> 2021-11-07 08:26:25 UTC https://padlet.com/freelml/cxe5jc6ndsrqes4v/wish/1872406389 freelml https://padlet.com/freelml/cxe5jc6ndsrqes4v/wish/1873136757 Collection of data as part of the instructional routine/
Data collected within the instructional cycle

Ex: Summative end of unit test (teacher created or from a publisher such as Ready Gen)
