Summative assessment

3. How did the teacher relate the lesson to previous learning? How did the teacher relate the lesson to the backgrounds of the students (e.g. ethnicity, socioeconomic, etc.)? Mrs. Taylor did a tremendous job of relating this lesson to previous learning that the students have completed in her classroom over the last class period. When she was introducing the lesson, Mrs. Taylor made the lesson connect to the book that they had read in this class, The Three Little Pigs, and the structures that…

“Words are the central tool of education. Whether written or spoken, words can elucidate, inform, and inspire. But they can also scare, humiliate, and disempower” (Wessler). This quote perfectly represents the outcome and position words hold in society. Language is crucial within human lives. It has multiple uses such as eliminating confusion, exchanging information and communicating instructions. However, the use of derogatory language towards a human is an unacceptable concept. Words that…

who passed algebra 1 grade wise but didn't understand the concepts and were required to retake it, did worse on the second time through. "Among the higher performing students (C or better) who repeated, half saw their scores on the algebra state assessment fall by an entire performance level from “proficient” to “basic”." This shows that when information is retaught, it doesn't necessarily help the student. It in fact can hinder a student. Good thing there is an easy solution to solve this…

My first step to implementing a Tier 2 Intervention would be deciding which students need the extra help. From there I would create an individualized Check-In-Check-Out sheet for each student. After I have completed their sheets I would find the time to pull the student to the side to explain how the Check-In-Check-Out sheet works. An important part to remember is to check to see if the student understands what you are saying. This can be done by asking the student questions and getting them to…

The principle will use an assessment task in collecting information to later use as a curriculum change (University, 2015), and professional development options. The teachers will give the students an evaluation test to measure where they stand on math, science, and…

the Teachers’ Standards (2013), teachers are expected to “[m]ake accurate and productive use of assessment” (DfE [i], 2013, p.12). Assessment is, therefore, a fundamental aspect of one’s role as a teacher and to fulfil this standard effectively, a number of strategies have been proposed to conduct regular assessments. In light of this, I aim to provide a reflective commentary on the process of assessment and its purpose, with a focus on the Early Years Foundation Stage [EYFS], at a primary…

initial assessment. This will determine what course is suitable for the learner, by assessing their existing knowledge and understanding, as well as their style of learning. The assessments will also highlight any additional support needs the learner might require. The TA will need to explain HIT’s policies and procedures for; Equality & Diversity; Data Protection; Appeals Procedure and offer IAG at the start of their course. The TA is therefore responsible for the planning of assessments with…
