In assessment a teacher is supposed to sit with the learner meaning it is something we do with and for students and not something we do to students (Green, 1998).

Tick the type of assessment you think describes each assessment task.

Solution

Activity: H/O4

Formative Assessment

How can we carry out formative assessment.

Activity: H/O5

Choose 1 Curriculum Standard.Determine how many parts there are in the standard.

If more than one part, rewrite the standard so that each part is separate (or indicate the parts).For each part of the standard:Write one formative assessment question and one summative assessment question.

Ongoing Assessment

Assessment is a continuous process and certain evaluations will make up final marks or grades.

How do you implement ongoing assessment in your school?

Case study: It’s the end of term, and the teacher is ready to

give a final/report card mark for science. How would the teacher use ongoing assessment come with that mark?

30 Min. (11:45-12:15)

Ongoing Assessment

One example: 15% for notes done in class 10% for participation in group work 5% for homework completion 20% for lab reports which were marked for

content, and understanding 20% 4 quizzes 30% End of Term Exam

Ongoing Assessment

Remember: assessment and evaluation provide information for improved student performance.

When one looks at a mark of 65% or a C in Sciences, it is important to know how the student can improve to receive a 75% or a B next time.

Look at the evidence to determine the areas of strength and the areas of weakness to improve overall learning.

How to deal with the students questions? Remember wait time I and II:Provide at least 3 sec after a question and after a response Ask follow ups:Why? Do you agree? Can you elaborate? Tell me more, can

you give an example? Ask students to unpack their thinking (thinking

aloud):Describe how you arrived at your answer. Call on students randomly:Avoid only calling on those SS with raised hands. Encourage SS questioning:Let SS develop their own questions األسئلة إثارة على الطالب شجع
