  • Greater need/emphasis on Assessment being used to inform the learning then the teaching. 
  • Greater emphasis on student involvement in assessment.
  • I really like the emphasis on feedback as a critical role in improving teaching and learning.
  • The development of assessment capabilities (teacher, student and learning community.
  • Backward and forward of design of assessment.
  • I really like the inclusion of indicators for designing assessment (pg .74), determining what to assess (pg 75).
  • Diagram AS03 pg 77 - placing the emphasis on monitoring and documenting will be a game changer for lots of teachers and schools.

Moving through from assessment being the end point and more how assessment informs the learning and teaching (that order?) I agree that this is going to be a paradigm shift for many. Especially when rewriting/reflecting on planners as the summative was such a crucial part of backward design for many.

Student input into assessment criteria, feedback/forward loop.

The building assessment capabilities in our educators, students and community.

Greater focus on Assessment for Learning, Assessment of Learning and Assessment as Learning. Most interesting will be the focus on Assessment as Learning for both students and teachers.

I think that timely feedback is so important but difficult for many teachers. I think some will have to make adjustments so that students are given feedback often.

Finding the best method for housing evidence of learning. Digital portfolio? Hardcopy? Combo of both? Other?
