After the assessment you should provide feedback in a timely manner so students know what to improve upon. I liked the "Act, Plan, Assess, Analyze" for student improvement. ]]> 2023-07-04 17:37:34 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2638120566 https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2638144185 It is important for teachers to use effective and purposeful assessments. I personally found the slides on the roles of the teacher in assessments and in evaluations to be very helpful and informative. I also really liked the different assessments that were shared and linked into the presentation. ]]> 2023-07-04 18:55:23 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2638144185 https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2638176616 There should be various ways when it comes to assessing students on topics, and shouldn't and doesn't need to always be paper and pencil. Assessment should have meaning and purpose and the goal of what you want the children to learn and be able to accomplish is crucial to. ]]> 2023-07-04 20:45:40 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2638176616 https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2638776480 My biggest takeaway is that assessments should be meaningful and have a purpose to effective. ]]> 2023-07-05 12:28:02 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2638776480 clsnyder97 https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2638836779 My biggest take away is that assessments need to have a purpose. They need to be data that will be used by the teacher for their teaching.]]> 2023-07-05 14:06:37 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2638836779 dbeiner https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2638944060 My biggest takeaway is there are many different forms of assessment, especially formative assessments. I personally prefer gathering data from multiple formative assessments rather than summative assessments. This way you can see if they are grasping the concept, if they need more instruction time, how they are progressing, and what the next steps are. Some (probably most) students get anxious with bigger tests, especially state mandated tests like PSSA's. Formative tests are done in many ways, most of which the students don't even know they're being assessed!]]> 2023-07-05 18:13:13 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2638944060 kstinson13 https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2638944716 My biggest takeaway is that assessment can come in different forms but its main purpose should be to monitor learning. When we assess, it should inform our instruction so that we can better support our students learning. ]]> 2023-07-05 18:15:14 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2638944716 https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2639199092 My key takeaway from your presentation was how assessments are always ongoing. They should be used to guide teachers in their instruction, collect data on gaps for students, and set students up for success. We need to remember that assessments are not just a grade or some test to be given - they need to set our kids up for success.]]> 2023-07-06 02:16:27 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2639199092 moertner https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2639622315 Assessments MUST be meaningful! Assessments must be used to guide instruction and can be used to form new groups based on skills students need to learn. They must be valid and give the teacher some sort of feedback as to how the students are learning the material!]]> 2023-07-06 12:06:52 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2639622315 https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2639768565 My biggest takeaway is that we collect this information and use it to drive instruction. Each type of assessment has a different purpose and as teachers we must know when to administer them and how to proceed using that information. ]]> 2023-07-06 16:37:42 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2639768565 turnerk37 https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2639778420 My biggest takeaway is ensuring all assessments are meaningful and utilized as a tool to determine what is taught. I struggle with administering district-wide assessments and following district-wide curriculum guides for this reason (however I follow it because I have to). ]]> 2023-07-06 17:05:59 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2639778420 https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2639792167 My biggest takeaway is that assessments should meaningful and helpful to the teacher and student. I think I also heard that assessment should be a positive, motivating experience. I love this idea, as students should be excited to show what they know. We should be able to monitor learning effectively and give students tasks to complete that make sense to them and are enjoyable.]]> 2023-07-06 17:45:21 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2639792167 https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2639842043 My big takeaway from this is that assessments need to be meaningful and need to be used to guide instruction. I like how you described how the teacher needs to collect this information so they can guide their instruction based on the students' needs. ]]> 2023-07-06 20:31:24 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2639842043 https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2640152280 My biggest takeaway is the importance of meaningful and useful assessment. It should be used to drive our instruction and in an appropriate way. ]]> 2023-07-07 03:02:01 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2640152280 https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2640458913 The biggest takeaway is that are tools that the teacher and students use. There are many parts and purposes to assessment but they need to be meaningful and purposeful to give you information to inform instruction. I feel that I could get better at using and analyzing assessments to give my students exactly what they need.!]]> 2023-07-07 11:52:41 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2640458913 https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2640646720 My biggest take away is that we need to collect important data on each student to correctly change how we are teaching them. I also think that a big takeaway is that assessments should be given in a wide variety of ways. What may work for one student does not work for another. No matter what type of assessment a teacher uses, it needs to really guide our plan for a students learning!]]> 2023-07-07 21:16:45 UTC https://padlet.com/amarchese15/umj2t1rbvv92hlwb/wish/2640646720
