Assessments+and+Evaluations

I learned a lot more about assessment as learning rather then having it as monitoring tool. Also, how I need to tailor some assessments for individual students. These principals allow for students to do more self assessment during class time. Self assessment being particularly important skill for students to develop in their education as it allows them to provide the instructor with guidance on what they are having difficulty with during class time. It also allows them to know when to research materials on their own initiative. If methods are differentiated in learning it also allows the student to independently assess how their progress. However, like good teaching must be differentiated the assessment must also be tailored to method of learning being used. An exploration, experiments, discovery and Socratic methods should each have tailored tools of assessment to measure and assist student learning. - John Newsome
