I am interested more about how students can be at the centre of their assessment.]]> 2018-09-04 17:55:43 UTC https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687171 https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687304 I encourage and trust self reflection/assessment ]]> 2018-09-04 17:55:56 UTC https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687304 janelle_makowetski https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687334 Used to grade on their 'prettiness' of their work. Now I provide them opportunities to be artistic or not within assignments.

B- How to the new assessment process is accurate.]]> 2018-09-04 17:55:59 UTC https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687334 https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687354 (a) One thing I focused on was summative assessment at the end, what has changed is that I am more focused on formative assessment now and along with self/peer reflection to showcase a student's learning journey.

(b) I want to dive deeper into showcasing student led assessing this year.

Now...I would like to look at the building blocks as learning opportunities. ]]> 2018-09-04 17:56:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687471 https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687573
b.How to mark the new course

Now I am open to a variety of ways to assess ( reflections, process over product, peer, etc)

I'd like to learn about different methods of assessment for learning.]]> 2018-09-04 17:56:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687737 https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687783 I used to think that the product was the most important piece to assess learning. Now I know that the process is equally, if not more, important.]]> 2018-09-04 17:56:44 UTC https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687783 autumn_kelly https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687843 I used to assess and move on to the next product or assignment. Now there is never a final assessment, students have the opportunity to refine, alter and change their work throughout the year. Why because it allows the students to feel that they are in the driver's seat of their learning and assessment.

What I would like to learn more about is continuing to have students actively involved in their assessment.]]> 2018-09-04 17:56:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687843 https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687899 I use to only allow students to do assignments/quizzes/tests once. Now it is a journey and they can showcase their learning all year. Concepts can click (make sense) for students at the end of the year vs the beginning when we did that unit. 

Like to learn more about tools]]> 2018-09-04 17:56:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687899 https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687925 Used to do more evaluation rather than assessment- more black and white. Now look more at process of learning and giving more feedback so students can make corrections and improve. ]]> 2018-09-04 17:57:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687925 https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277687978 I try to focus on creating rubrics and checklists written in student friendly language and teach with the "end in mind".

I have vivid memories to entering data, falling way behind, only to be frustrated by the calculated average produced by the database program.

I would like to dig deeper into abandoning traditional ways of assessment. ]]> 2018-09-04 17:57:35 UTC https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277688242 https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277688258 I try to encourage some level of self-reflection. Taking time to reflect on where we have come from and where we are going and what has brought us to this point is very important in self-actualization and an increased confidence in learning something new which can have the power to inspire. ]]> 2018-09-04 17:57:37 UTC https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277688258 https://padlet.com/jordan_kleckner1/z5x8lugis88g/wish/277688411
