This reading contained a lot of information on assessment. It would take me quite some time to really understand all of the information that was given. It was interesting to learn about how many different forms there are of assessment, because in my experience, I can only really remember a few types: through tests, written assignments, speeches, and projects.
Features of effective assessment in Science: Assessment is contextualized, continuous, multidimensional (differentiate), students are actively involved with how you grade and what you are grading, it's valid and reliable, aligned with learning goals, accommodates diversity, consistent with learning theory, measures meaningful understanding. Assessment is done by the teacher, the student- when students are too hard on themselves, peers- when working in a group telling who put most work in. The purpose of the assessment through formative assessment is constant. The summative assessment is when the year ends. Assessments and rubrics must be linked to learning performances!
