Formal and Informal Assessment and Feedback Plan

 
What

tasks, strategies, instruments

How

the processes, how often?

Why

how do the selected tools support your learning goals and the learning principles guiding your design?

a) to enable continuous/frequent feedback between you and the teachers
  • Monitor students' work as they are setting up their grade book.
  • Question teachers during instruction helping teachers to use problem solving techniques to answer with online help.
Ongoing through all training. The assessment will be performance-based assessment. It will be reality as teachers will have to start using the grade book day one of school.
b) to encourage the teachers to reflect on their learning progress and achievement
  • share success of utilization of grade book
At end of first week.

 

At the end of the first week I will send out an email telling the success of posting of online attendance. This will encourage future use as they see that the campus was successful and that everyone is learning.
c) to determine teachers learning progress and achievement
  • Monitor teachers' grade book use during first six weeks.
  • Create a rubric of ongoing use that I fill out and share the rubric at the end of the first 6 weeks.
  • Offer additional training for those who need at the 4th or 5th week in first 6th weeks.

Ongoing through first 6 weeks.

 

I will complete the rubric to assess success of grade book use. I will share the rubric with teachers. Those in need of additional support will be offered training in the 4th or 5th week of the 6th week.
