Unit 5 Flashcards
Summative based formative assessment
-It is also called “formal” formative assessment it is a planned structured activity usually the entire glass or group of students that generates results that are used after sometime has elapsed rather than immediately.
-Being done before or following instructions
Preassessment (early assessment)
Is a given prior to instructing students, before the study and learn
It is a set up in advance and administered as planned with some amount of time between gathering of data and interpretation that allows teacher to reflect on the result and determine the next most appropriate instructional activities
3 importance of preassessment
- they help teachers identify where learning progressions instruction should be focused, avoiding redundancy and moving student ahead
- help teachers determine the appropriate level of challenge and difficulty students need to motivate them, making instruction more intrinsically interesting relevant and engaging
- helps student understand learning targets and the sequential process of learning that is needed
Two types of pre-assessment
- Structured exercise - a good approach to evaluating current student knowledge and skills
- provide opportunity to observe students in the context of specific performance situation - Pretest - indicate what students know and don’t know or what they can or cannot do
Two other planned types of formative assessment
Homework
- the primary purpose of homework for most teacher is to provide extra practice in applying knowledge and skills
- also used to extend expand and elaborate student learning
- to check on student learning which acts primarily as a way for teachers to determine whether student individually and as a group have rich or exceed proficiency
Seatwork
- teachers can circulate monitor student performance and provide immediate specific feedback as student work to complete a test or question
(Self assess)
Advantage
Structured exercise - comfortable less test oriented with less accompanying stress
Pretest - provide standard baseline for all student
- provide a starting point for more specific diagnostic assessment
- provide results teachers can analyze
Homework - relatively low states
- can be individualized
-useful for detecting common misconceptions struggles or errors
Seatwork - digital version engaged students and provide immediate feedback
- task can be individualized
- teachers can monitor and respond to individual questions
Disadvantages
Quiz and unit test
Are summative to document what student know, teacher often do or should use quizzes and unit test formatively
Digital tool
The use of digital tool for formative assessment is now ubiquitousand quicker replacing physical classroom response system that use sticky notes exit tickets or clickers
Common assessment
Common assessment are prepared collaboratively by a team of teachers or others to measure student progress towards shared standards based learning targets and goals
Interim assessment (benchmark)
A high stakes accountability demands have to led widespread implementing of periodic testing during the school year to determine students progress toward meeting standards that will assess on the end of the year high stakes test
Year and large scale assessments

Performance ➡️ Result feedback ➡️ Students Response
Anticipating feedback
Three steps
1. Understand the learning target
2. Know probable student error
3. Establish feedback ideas
