I & I by Norman Mcgaughey https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II en-us 2016-02-16 17:56:51 UTC 2016-02-16 18:48:12 UTC hello@padlet.com How about breaking the larger assessment into smaller assessments,  much like other courses are using.  The assessment is a good one,  and it would be a waste to eliminate it. https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95370679 2016-02-16 18:16:54 UTC https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95370679 I&I https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95370683 Pros of the current test:
-It makes gathering data for the slo super easy. 
-This is a 1 period test, if not less. Completing the pre and post test takes 2 days max. 
-The data is straightforward. It really isn't subjective. 
Cons:
-A lot of teachers, especially those not familiar with tech ed, are just teaching to the test. The students might be missing out on the opportunities they should be getting in I&I. 



If the process for using the CTE rubric is better than the current global scholar process more people will be open to using the rubric. ]]> 2016-02-16 18:16:54 UTC https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95370683 https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95370688 I think there are benefits to both the Rubric and the Test.  The test helps to ensure that certain content area is covered, but it does lead to teaching to the test.  The rubric allows for a more meaningful review of students, but can be very subjective.  I do think that if there were multiple, shorter tests throughout the unit that it would be better as it can be very hard for 7th graders to try to remember something that was covered in August on a test that they are taking in late January.]]> 2016-02-16 18:16:55 UTC https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95370688 I like the assessment the way it is because there is less room for variations of how teachers correct. https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95370783 2016-02-16 18:17:11 UTC https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95370783 I think it would be beneficial to have a bit of both assessments. MC: Assess what they may have memorized CTE Rubric may be a bit too subjective. https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95370877 2016-02-16 18:17:27 UTC https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95370877 It's easy to write SLOs the way the assessment is now. https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95371050 2016-02-16 18:17:59 UTC https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95371050 Not being familiar with the test, at least it is the same for everyone, and the data is the data, not subjective.  You can only hope no one teaches to the test, but rather touches on every area. https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95371220 2016-02-16 18:18:36 UTC https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95371220 https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95371511 multiple choice tests are more objective than grading based off a rubric,]]> 2016-02-16 18:19:25 UTC https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95371511 Too much room for error in Rubric to be used for SLOs https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95371561 2016-02-16 18:19:34 UTC https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95371561 Positive and Negatives of Multiple Choice https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95371627 P- Easy to measure 
p- East to analyze data
p- Directly linked to standards and indicators
p-It helps show teacher what they need to teach since they do not look at the actual standards

N- May not 100% reflect what and how information was taught 
N- If you do not get specific content in the course, the students will suffer on the test.
N- The test encourages teaching to the test (content that may not be that important)
N- IT will constantly be having to be updated because of changes in the course (i.e. computer science and 3D printing)

I just need to not care so much.]]> 2016-02-16 18:29:58 UTC https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95374834 Multiple Choice https://padlet.com/norman_mcgaughe/II/wish/95375066 I like the way it is now.
