Designing and Developing Assessments - the Assessment Matrix and Training for...James Brunton
While the viewpoint of the key stakeholders may differ, assessment is a vital component of any educational programme. For students, assessment shapes and determines the focus of their learning. Lecturers view assessment as an important part of learning, but will also focus on other aspects such as module content. Assessment provides a lecturer with feedback on the effectiveness of their instruction. The policy maker views assessment as a tool to measure the success of instruction in achieving learning outcomes. Assessment can also trigger warning signals for programme teams within the online distance education context. Due to the lack of contact between students and the programme team, early indicators can alert administrators to ‘at risk’ students.
In 2012 a project with the aim of improving assessment writing in an online BA (Hons) in Humanities began with the development of a guide for designing and writing assessments for online distance education students. In 2013 the appropriate assessment types required to provide students with reasonable learning opportunities to achieve the programme learning outcomes, as well as module learning outcomes, were identified. This resulted in the creation of an assessment matrix, for the programme’s modular structure, which provided a detailed overview of the appropriate assessment types from a programme level perspective. Currently, to progress the project, an online course and associated training workshops are being designed for assessment writers.
This paper examines the process involved in: the creation of the guide; identifying the appropriate assessment types for the achievement of the learning outcomes; the development of the assessment matrix and; the ongoing development of an online course and training workshops. The paper also details the lessons learned from the project thus far and outlines the future plans that have emerged following the implementation of the assessment matrix.
Program Data 101 - From Data Center to Academy Assessment to Action Planning–...NAFCareerAcads
Designed for new academies, this session will focus on ways to meet critical deadlines and use data to inform your academy improvement plan. Academies will share their timelines and strategies for collecting data, meeting with leaders to score the academy assessment and how they use results to create action plans for improvement. The session promises to be informative for new academies looking for help in developing good habits for involving others and creating a plan for their academy development efforts.
In this webinar Prof. Scott Burgess and Prof. Orin Godsey, with the College of Aeronautics, walk through the steps necessary to complete the Capstone Course, which is a requirement for students in the Bachelor of Science in Aeronautics and several other ERAU programs.
Enhancing Librarians’ Research Skills: A Professional Development ProgramIRDL
Institute of Research Design for Librarianship (IRDL), is a three-year project funded by the Institute of Museum and Library Services in the United States, which seeks to provide professional development opportunities and a support system for academic librarians who want to improve their research skills and increase their research output. We have recently completed the first nine-day Institute for 25 librarians from all over the country, and we would like to share our experience with the international community, hoping to generate more interest and encourage more discussion on practitioner research in LIS.
*** Presented at the Library 2.014 Conference on October 8, 2014. The recording of the session is available at https://sas.elluminate.com/site/external/recording/playback/link/table/dropin?sid=2008350&suid=D.2D7040A7156F9544A91E1BDFA52A25. ***

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 Art Pastor's Guide to Sabbath | Steve ThomasonSteve Thomason
What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
3. Standards
• Unpacking the Standard(s) – this
information should come from core
– Select a standard or set of standards
– Circle the verbs and action phrases (skills –
Do)
– Underline the nouns and noun phrases
(knowledge and understanding – K and U)
– Identify pre-requisite skills implied within the
standard
– Determine instructional implications
of the standard
4. Standards
• Example pre-requisite or implied skills
Reading | Planning and Problem Solving |
Critical Thinking Skills | Maintain Focus | Task
Persistence | Organization and Synthesis of
Information | Self-Regulation | Active Listening |
Language
• Instructional Implication
– Review/reteach the implied skills
– Provide scaffolding for implied skills
5. Cognition & Neurology
Neurological, or cognitive, processes
(such as memory) can impact
engagement, learning, and achievement.
Students differ widely in their cognitive
processing skills.
7. Information Mapping
• Pass out first business letter.
• Do not open the letter until instructed.
• Time the response.
• Pass out second business letter.
• Do not open the letter until instructed.
• Time the response.
8. Cognition – Input (visual/auditory)
• Recognizing size, shape, and placement
of text
• Recognizing line and paragraph
typography
• Distinguishing subtle differences in sounds
• Distinguishing figure and background
sounds
9. Instructional Scaffolds
• Input
– Reading/focus guides
– Fonts and font sizes
– Spacing between words, lines and
paragraphs
– Visually organizing text with
highlighters, comments, and
stamps
– Graph paper
– Text-to-speech
– Personal FM systems
11. Cognition – Integration
• Sequencing
– Ordering and sequencing information
– Organizing and relating information
• Abstraction
– Inferring meaning
– Generalizing a text
27. Cognition – Output
• Spontaneous language
– Self-selecting subject and related information
– Organizing information and thoughts
• Demand language
– Selecting related information
– Organizing information and thoughts
28. Instructional Scaffolds
• Output
– Guided discussion questions
– Cue cards
– Graphic organizers
– Written notes with main
points highlighted
– Extra time to prepare
responses (with specific
strategies)
30. Scaffold Integration
All of these types of scaffolds are most effective
when used in conjunction with each other. For
example, a student may be taught a strategy or
system for highlighting and visually marking complex
text. The text that was highlighted and marked may
then be used to fill out a graphic organizer, concept
map, timeline, etc. Further processing could include
illustrating some of the information on the graphic
organizer. That graphic organizer could then become
a discussion support tool.
31. Reflection
• What affirms what you already
know?
• What makes you uncomfortable or
would require additional
discussion with colleagues?
• What could result in changing a
way of work or changing a
process?
