Assessments should be used to monitor reading comprehension and guide instruction by identifying student strengths and weaknesses. They should be authentic, valid, reliable, and confidential. Formative assessments are used for learning during instruction with low stakes grading, while summative assessments evaluate learning after a unit with high stakes grading. Accommodations on assessments must match a student's IEP or 504 plan and may include changes to delivery, timing, or setting.

What counts in reading and writing assessment? How do we choose assessments that support the strengths in our students and choose assessments that support our planning? Consider the alignment of values and assessment.
What counts in reading and writing assessment? How do we align our teaching and our assessment? What is valued? Are all students included? How much time is taken? How do we use the information we collect to inform our teaching? AFL counts!

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Driscoll, Heather - Overview of Reading Assessment
1. • All assessments should be authentic, valid, and reliable. This
includes assessing only what has been taught.
• All assessments should remain confidential.
• The purposes of assessments should be clear and
communicated to stakeholders.
The overall role of assessments in reading instruction is to find
where the students are in their reading skills and help them
grow. Assessments help us:
• Monitor comprehension
• Guide instruction
• Monitor strengths and weaknesses
Reading Assessment
Examples of formative
assessments:
• Asking students what letters and
sounds they know before
beginning a lesson
• Observation of students during
instruction
Examples of summative
assessments:
• At the end of a unit, assessing
students on their mastery of
adding "ing" to words
• At the end of a unit, assessing
student mastery of identifying
how many syllables are in words
• Accommodations must be the same as what is outlined in the
student's IEP or 504 Plan.
• May include different delivery methods (oral presentation
instead of written), more time to complete, or the setting in
which an assessment is given.
Formative & Summative Assessment Differences
Formative Summative
• Diagnostic
• An assessment for learning
during instruction
• Grading of formative
assessments are weighted
less; low stakes
• Evaluative
• Assessment OF learning
after a
unit/chapter/semester
• Grading of summative
assessments have higher
weight; high stakes
