Inquiry Based Assessment

edsachs1 — 2025-03-04 16:35:29 UTC

When: Beginning of a unit

Why: Diagnostic tool to assess prior knowledge

How: In the form of written questions. Ex. "Write everything you know about the Alternate Angles Theorem".

Zero, one, two, three

edsachs1 — 2025-03-04 16:35:34 UTC

When: beginning of lesson, after lesson, after students finish the worksheet

Why: allows students to self assess, can be discrete, and provides teacher with information on who is still lacking confidence with the topic

How: Students self assess on their confidence around the lesson by either writing zero, one, two, or three in their notebooks, on a piece of paper, or using their fingers. Where zero means they do not understand and three being they completely understand.

The Frayer Model

edsachs1 — 2025-03-04 20:25:26 UTC

When: Learning new vocabulary or testing on vocabulary

Why: asks students to analyze on a deeper level and promotes higher level thinking

How: ask students to put vocab word in the middle of a piece of paper. Students then put examples, nonexamples, definition, and characteristics around the word.

Advantages:

diagnostic and formative feedback
direct feedback of individual's thoughts
Educator can take the information to adjust future lesson planning
allows students to express, reflect, and analyze

Claim-Support-Question

edsachs1 — 2025-03-04 22:01:43 UTC

I would have students practice, "claim-support-question"
students would make a claim, support their reasoning, and then pose a question/question others.
I would use this by have a problem on the board and asking students to claim-support- question regarding the prompt. This would help gain insight on how well they know the content and their depth of knowledge.
