Assessment for Learning Practices

What is the MAIN aim of Assessment for Learning?

• For teachers to know where students are in their learning

• For students to be able to know what they are learning about

• To eventually transfer the ownership of learning to the students themselves

• For students to be able to assess their learning independently

How do you decide what your Learning Intention is?

• Look at the student's most recent assessment information/data

• Look at their OTJ's from the previous term

• Collect student's prior knowledge about a topic to see what they already know

• Use the first Learning Intention for the level they are on

How do you co-construct Success Criteria with your students?

• Give the students a list of Success Criteria after introducing the Learning Intention

• Ask students how they would do this when you begin the lesson

• Model an example of how to do it

• Use pre-written exemplars and share/discuss features of these with students

What do you do if after the 'I do' part of your lesson your students can NOT co-construct the Success Criteria?

• Give them the Success Criteria on a sheet.

• Redo the 'I do' part of your lesson at the same pace

• Give them the Success Criteria and write it down for them

• Redo the 'I do' part of your lesson but break it down into manageable parts for your learners

What is self assessment?

• When the teacher and student assess the students work against the success criteria

• When the student assesses their own work against the co-constructed success criteria

• When the student assesses whether they have met the learning intention

• When the student shares their work with a tuakana and the tuakana checks their work against the success criteria
