Three Part Assignment Part 1: Standardize Testing
This article by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development titled, “Evaluation and Assessment Frameworks for Improving School Outcomes” talks about how standardized assessments are high stakes in determining not only student learning, but measuring effectiveness of schools and determining school funding. How does teacher evaluation play a role in this? School evaluations? How students learn what is provided by state standards? If we know that students learn best in other ways and by formative assessment, why are standardized test used and used in such high stakes? Part 2:Hand in Hand!!
Teaching and Learning go hand in hand!!
Attached is a PDF from the North Platte Public Schools in Nebraska called, “Factors that Impact Teaching and Learning”.
According to the goals on this document, who are the principle players responsible for student learning? (Notice I did not say Principal – which is a person – your prinicpal is your PAL). How did this district aim to improve or ensure high quality student learning? Do you agree with this? Why do you think that parents and students were not included on this list?
Part 3: The Learning Process
In the article, “7 Important Factors that May Affect the Learning Process” by Puja Mondal, there are factors that affect learning that directly relate to the students and others that derive from other sources. After reading this article, make a T chart that categorizes the factors in this article as to “Student-Based” vs “Other”. The idea here is to gauge how much learning is impacted by the receptable and their motivation/abilities (student) and the provider of knowledge (teacher, schools, etc). What do you think is most important? Why do you think so?
