https://padlet.com/shines5/vfckbxqqoxq6 Part II: After posting, go back and read through your classmates posts and look for patterns. Then post on this PADLET LINK what you are seeing for patterns and overall themes (i.e. "analyze the findings"). Limit your padlet post to 200 words if typewritten. en-us 2017-01-24 02:14:37 UTC 2020-03-26 05:49:47 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/shines5/vfckbxqqoxq6/wish/473792299 A common theme that I saw in answers was the tests asked for content knowledge, but lacked the application of the knowledge in various situations.

The experience we had during college days have taught us the exams can be tricky and how the professors gives out the exams due to their knowledge. -Regina Daniels]]> 2020-03-25 03:28:25 UTC https://padlet.com/shines5/vfckbxqqoxq6/wish/473841856 https://padlet.com/shines5/vfckbxqqoxq6/wish/474765878 A common theme throughout the posts is the disconnect between the Construct, Content Domain, and Content Areas. The tests often do not measure the course material taught. They test ability to complete the instrument. - Peter Stemp]]> 2020-03-25 15:17:11 UTC https://padlet.com/shines5/vfckbxqqoxq6/wish/474765878 expegu19 https://padlet.com/shines5/vfckbxqqoxq6/wish/475287434 The common theme and thread within many of the posts is the relative value of testing. It is clear that we have all experienced testing that didn't articulate our abilities both perceived and in reality. As someone mention testing should assess what we have learned and not what the construction thinks we should know. ]]> 2020-03-25 19:29:47 UTC https://padlet.com/shines5/vfckbxqqoxq6/wish/475287434 dmhall08 https://padlet.com/shines5/vfckbxqqoxq6/wish/475558573 The two things that popped out most to me were tests that didn't match the learning or tests when there were high stakes involved and struggles with understanding.  When there were high stakes and struggles with the understanding the content, then anxiety played a role in test taking. One thing that I love about the EDD program is that all of my professors want us to have a deep understanding and it is assessed in many different ways, not just a quiz/test.  I like the application of knowledge through writing and the journaling has been powerful for my learning process as well.

That was something which a few other people posted that I noticed. Another theme I saw throughout the posts was on the application of materials that were presented for a test rather than simple memorization of the material.

I am thinking that this might happen because of the two different ways that science classes are taught - books and labs, and if a student didn't have an opportunity to experience hands on learning - application of the material prior to a test, this could potentially lead to a situation where the test is not assessing the content that was to be learned. ]]> 2020-03-26 05:05:34 UTC https://padlet.com/shines5/vfckbxqqoxq6/wish/475750237 https://padlet.com/shines5/vfckbxqqoxq6/wish/475767841 Edison]]> 2020-03-26 05:44:47 UTC https://padlet.com/shines5/vfckbxqqoxq6/wish/475767841
