Plan Your Next Plan - The Assessment Plan!Vincci Kwong
This document discusses the importance of developing an assessment plan for academic libraries. It recommends that an assessment plan should include the purpose, value, goals, outcomes, timeline, data policies, structures, and resources for assessment activities. The plan helps organize and prioritize assessment efforts, keep track of results, and record assessment data over time. Components like goals, outcomes and timeline specify what will be assessed, expected results, and assessment schedule. Data policies outline how data will be gathered, stored, accessed, and reported. Structures determine how assessment will be facilitated through committees, taskforces or coordinators. Resources identify necessary staff support and references. Developing a formal assessment plan can help libraries systematically conduct assessments and use results for improvement.
Metacognition refers to thinking about one's own thinking and learning processes. It involves monitoring and assessing one's own learning, and making adjustments to improve learning. To support student self-regulation, teachers can provide opportunities for self-evaluation, create an environment that fosters learning how to learn, and encourage behaviors like questioning, help-seeking, and goal-setting. Specific strategies include think-pair-share activities, reflective prompts, exam wrappers, learning journals, modeling organizational structures, and discussing how activities help students learn.
Common formative assessments -sope creekbetseykenn
This document discusses common formative assessments and their benefits. It defines common formative assessments as short, collaboratively designed assessments administered to all students in a grade level or course. The benefits listed are that they provide regular feedback to teachers to guide instruction and meet diverse student needs, and promote consistency and agreed-upon proficiency levels across classrooms. The document provides guidance on the characteristics and design of effective common formative assessments.
Common formative assessments are designed by teachers collaboratively to help students develop agreed-upon knowledge and skills. They measure student learning frequently and are used to inform instruction. Teachers analyze assessment results together to determine what was learned and what needs to be retaught. The assessments are given regularly, such as once a month, to monitor student progress towards standards. If students do not demonstrate mastery of content, teachers modify instruction to meet diverse learning needs.
This document discusses the use of behavior specific praise to support instruction. It defines behavior specific praise and explains why it is an effective strategy. Research shows it increases on-task behavior and reduces problem behavior. The document provides examples of behavior specific praise and reviews benefits like improving relationships and engagement. It also notes potential challenges and provides a checklist for implementing behavior specific praise, monitoring its effects, and ensuring treatment integrity.
This document discusses creating a learner-centered environment for students through student choice, collaboration, and teacher collaboration. It suggests that teachers consider how their behaviors, the physical space, and how students acquire and develop knowledge can contribute to making the environment more learner-centered.

Effects of matching teaching strategy to thinking style1Livia Pan
The document summarizes a study that examined how matching teaching strategies to students' thinking styles affects the quality of student reflection in an online learning environment. The study found that legislative, executive, and judicial thinking styles relate to different levels of reflection. It also found that a student's level of reflection can be greatly improved when the teaching strategy matches their thinking style. The study concluded that using adaptive teaching strategies tailored to students' thinking styles can help students better engage in and benefit from the reflection process.
This document outlines an agenda for a staff development session focused on assessment for learning. It begins with establishing a shared understanding of assessment for learning and reflecting on current classroom practices. Participants will then work on developing student skills and modifying programs to better incorporate assessment for learning approaches. The goal is to help students become more self-regulated and responsible for their own learning. Key concepts that will be explored include the research supporting assessment for learning, challenges to implementing it, and strategies for clarifying learning intentions and providing effective feedback.
Students reported a lack of formative assessment, surface-level learning approaches, and focusing only on select assessment points. Audits and surveys found inconsistent marking standards between teaching teams, variable feedback quality and quantity, and students unclear on expectations. The findings suggest transforming assessment practices from a transmission model to social constructivism and formative assessment to improve student learning, engagement, achievement and satisfaction.
This document discusses feedback in education from various perspectives. It notes that while course evaluations can provide useful feedback, the policies and processes of an institution determine how effective they are. Formative feedback through early and continuous assessment in the context of teaching goals is most effective for improvement. The document also addresses benefits and challenges of early formative feedback through methods like dialogue and surveys, as well as the role of summative feedback and end-of-term evaluations. It concludes by emphasizing the importance of institutions also receiving feedback from faculty about support and working conditions.
Student Learning Outcomes are KEY to AssessmentJoshua Barron
The document discusses student learning outcomes and assessment in academic advising. It emphasizes that academic advising should have clear student learning outcomes that are connected to the university's overall mission and goals. Effective assessment involves identifying desired outcomes in cognitive, skills-based, and affective domains, gathering evidence on student achievement, and using the results to improve advising practices and better support student learning. The assessment cycle is presented as a continuous process of setting outcomes, measuring progress, and implementing changes to strengthen advising and maximize student growth.
Literacy Walks are designed to improve literacy teaching and student achievement through focussed classroom observations. A Literacy Walk involves a small team visiting classrooms to observe literacy practices for 15 minutes each. The team collects evidence on classroom environment, student work and teacher practices without judgement. After each visit, the team discusses their observations to identify strengths and questions, then provides feedback to teachers to guide professional learning. The goal is for schools to engage in ongoing reflective practice through Literacy Walks to continuously improve literacy instruction.
This document discusses integrating student development theory into academic advising. It provides an overview of relevant theories like Chickering's theory of identity development and Schlossberg's transition theory.

This document outlines a 4-step process for establishing team norms within professional learning communities. It involves individuals first identifying potential norms, then consolidating in partners and small groups to develop an agreed upon list of norms. Finally, the full staff works to further consolidate all suggested norms into a final list through discussion and consensus building. The goal is for teams to develop protocols and commitments to guide their collaborative work in effectively addressing student needs.
Intervention Model Summary - Julia Kiniski SchoolJigsaw Learning
The staff at Julia Kiniski School committed to using the Collaborative Response Model to strengthen collaborative teams and regularly discuss student growth. Teachers created intervention pyramids with color-coded student names and move students between tiers based on progress. These discussions help teachers better support students and share strategies. The process is evolving as they refine their approach, but many students are showing growth from successful interventions discussed in meetings every 4-6 weeks. The school is exploring how to sustain this collaborative time and grouping students more flexibly for targeted interventions.

Learning agenda - Canadian Rockies (13-05-17)Jigsaw Learning
The agenda outlines a full day workshop exploring a collaborative response model to intervention. The day includes introductions, deconstructing the model through examining components like assessments and interventions, sharing local insights from other places using the model, lessons learned, examining literacy interventions and determining barriers and solutions, and outlining next steps before concluding in the afternoon. The workshop aims to focus on response to intervention and establishing systemic structures to support student success.
The document discusses ways to provide time for teacher collaboration in schools. It asks how schools currently provide collaboration time for staff and provides ideas for doing so. Some potential ways to make time for collaborative team meetings are discussed, with a link provided to access an organizer with additional resources on the topic.

The Four Tier Intervention Pyramid provides a framework for schools to ensure collaborative responses to student needs beyond classroom instruction. It establishes four tiers of intervention with Tier 1 being foundational classroom instruction, Tier 2 being interventions provided by the classroom teacher, Tier 3 being supports from other professionals, and Tier 4 being individualized intensive interventions that may include outside resources and diagnostic testing. The pyramid is intended to articulate differentiated strategies across classrooms and support inclusive practices.

The document compares a traditional school model to a student-response school model across several criteria on a scale of minor to major change. A traditional school provides reactive student support and focuses on overall school performance, while a student-response school provides proactive student support and focuses on individual performance. Additionally, a traditional school uses informal collaboration and summative assessments, whereas a student-response school uses formal collaboration focused on learning and ongoing formative assessments to drive instruction.
