Group Activity 1
In this activity we have decided on a self-assessment method, using a questionnaire as the assessment tool. In this questionnaire you will see that the questions indirectly refer to many different types of assessment practice.
- Score your current assessment practice using the questionnaire provided. Go to the file called Review of current practice to find the questionnaire.
- Use the learner questionnaire to find out what your learners think about your assessment practice. Note that in this case you are using the same tool (same questions and criteria) but applying it to a learner-review method. Learner reviews are among the most threatening, yet brave, things that a teacher can do.
- How do you feel about the results of the questionnaire. Do you think it gives an accurate reflection of how you use assessment in your classes? Share your thoughts by commenting on the below (using the subject heading "Assesment review"). Explain what you have learnt from the exercise.

ReplyDeleteThe results showed that I make reasonable use of a range of assessment techniques. I prejudged before looking comparing the tho results and felt my techniques were not varied enough. When I compared the two scores, my score was a bit lower than the learners. This revealed that I was being a bit hard on myself.

ReplyDeleteThe results in both cases revealed that I employ a reasonable range of assessment techniques. This demonstrates that there is much room for improvement. Specifically, it shows that I need to improve on giving more opportunities to assess each other's work. It is my hope that this module would provide me with strategies that I could use to ensure that learners become competent assessors as well.
Utica I like the fact that you were able to identify your areas for improvement. I think that it is very important for us as educators to reflect on how we conduct assessments in our classrooms. We should always strive to provide our students with many opportunities to peer and self assess so that they would see assessment as an integral component of teaching and learning. Keep up the great work.

The assessment interpretation was a true representation of my practice.
The learners'responses matched mine.
Therefore, I have learnt that, I use a wide range of assessment techniques.
