2. Have you had this experience?
1. Students don’t ask questions and
you realize later they don’t
understand.
2. Students come back to class and
say “I didn’t understand the
homework.”?

3. Formative assessments help
monitor students learning
• help students identify their strengths
and weaknesses and target areas
that need work
• help teachers recognize where
students are struggling and address
problems immediately

4. Summative Assessment
• The goal of summative assessment
is to evaluate student learning at
the end of an instructional unit.
Examples:
• a test
• a final project
• a paper

5. Benefits of Self-Assessment
• Develops lifelong skills of evaluation and analysis.
• Supports independent and autonomous learning.
• Gives students a sense of ownership and thus
increases motivation.
• Treats assessment as part of learning, so mistakes
are seen as opportunities rather than a sign of
failure.

6. Exit Slips
Students write:
1point of pain
2 questions
3things they want to remember from
the lesson.
OR
3 Things I Learned Today …
2 Things I Found Interesting …
1 Question I Still Have …

7. Assignments/Class work
Feedback requests
• Students are asked to identify one or two
specific areas they would like feedback
on from the teacher.

8. Checklist

checklist of assignment guidelines
before they submit it to the teacher.
They submit the checklist with the
assignment.

10. Self-Assessment and Testing
Final before the Final
1. Give Ss final exam two weeks early.
2. Those who do not perform well
identify areas of needed improvement
and focus on those for two weeks.
3. Those who pass engage in enrichment
activities (including tutoring students
who didn’t pass).

11. Ungraded quizzes
Give several ungraded quizzes
during the term.
Ss identify areas of needed
improvement before the graded
quizzes (different questions).

12. Self-analysis/Goal Setting
• Students complete a form that asks
them to analyze what they did well
on a test and what they still need to
work on.
• Students create a plan of action for
how to improve in needed areas.

14. Benefits of Peer Assessment
• Helps students to see their own work
more clearly by assessing the work of
others.
• Promotes a ‘community of
scholarship’.

15. • Reduces the amount of teacher
assessment but improves the quality
• Gives students a wider range of
feedback.

the author did well (stars) and one
specific suggestion for improvement
(the wish).

17. Two Plusses and Two Questions

18. Peer Editing Checklist

19. Use the Teacher Rubric
• Students share their work with
peers.
