Performance Standard 5: Assessment Strategies
The teacher systematically chooses a variety of diagnostic, formative, and summative assessment strategies and instruments that are valid and appropriate for the content and student population.
Coastal Plains RESA 2013-147
Performance Standard 6: Assessment Uses
The teacher systematically gathers, analyzes, and uses relevant data to measure student progress, to inform instructional content and delivery methods, and to provide timely and constructive feedback to both students and parents.
Coastal Plains RESA 2013-148
Performance Standard 4: Differentiated Instruction
The teacher challenges and supports each student’s learning by providing appropriate content and developing skills which address individual learning differences.
Accurate Assessment
Effectively Used
Why Assess?What’s the purpose?
Who will use the results?
Assess What?What are the learning targets?
Are they clear?Are they good?
Assess How?What method?Written well?
Sampled how?Avoid bias how?
Communicate How?How manage information?
How report?
Students are users, too.
Be sure students
understand targets, too.
Students track progress and communicate, too.
Students can participate in the process, too.
Formative Instructional PracticesKey Terms Task
Coastal Plains RESA 2013-1410
Divide into two groups.Group 1 has the prompt/question.Group 2 has the answers.
Number off group 2.In numerical order, group 2 members
will read the answer.Members in Group 1 will decide if
he/she has the question and will change to green cup to be recognized.
Reflection
Coastal Plains RESA 2013-1411
How does an assessment blueprint/test specification chart help ensure that the steps for Collecting Accurate Formative Evidence of Student Learning are followed?
Discuss with a partner and be prepared to explain to the group.
Refer to Audit an Assessment for Clear learning Targets (Download C, Module 3) as needed.
Collecting Accurate Formative Evidence of Student Learning
Coastal Plains RESA 2013-1412
1. Deconstruct the standard(s).
2. Set clear learning targets.
3. Determine learning target types.KnowledgeReasoningSkillProduct
4. Determine assessment method.Selected ResponseExtended Written

5. Set appropriate sample size.
6. Write/select high quality items and rubrics.
7. Control for bias.

A leader might say: “I’m sure that all the instructional materials used in our school are aligned to the new standards because the sales rep assured us of it.”
A coach might say: “The teachers I’m working with monitor learning by tracking summative evidence only.”
A teacher might say: “With traditional paper and pencil assessments, I always include at least one item where students have to write out an answer.”
A coach might say: “It is important that I help teachers with performance assessment this year. If we work on tasks, we can work on rubrics down the road.”
A teacher might say: “I plan the questions I ask. It is not always in the best interest of learning to just see where the classroom discussion goes.”
A teacher might say: “It is important to determine the sampling of items in advance.”
Know how to collect and document accurate formative evidence of learning.

Understand what makes feedback effective.
Groups of 3
1. Individually scan the three (3) texts.
2. Record characteristics of effective feedback, noting page numbers.
3. Come to consensus on what makes feedback effective. List five (5) important characteristics and record on chart paper.
Which is effective? Why?

Analyzing Evidence and Providing Effective Feedback, Activity 3, p. 7-8.
With a partner, complete the exercises by pretending you are the instructional coach. How would you provide feedback to each teacher? Consider the tips in the Success and Intervention Feedback Options table.
Know how to provide effective feedback.
Document and Analyze Evidence to Provide Feedback
Coastal Plains RESA 2013-1420
Why look at wrong answer choices?
How does the organization of the USA in the 1920s assessment facilitate documentation and feedback?
Another Look at Documenting Evidence

Coastal Plains RESA 2013-1423
Reflect on the assessment that you brought.Which standard?What is the learning target?
LT type?Will you document? If so, how?What feedback will you give? Does this assessment move learning forward?
How?Share.
Implementing Formative Instructional Practices Learning Targets
Coastal Plains RESA 2013-1424
Reflect and record evidence of your progress toward analyzing evidence of student learning and providing effective feedback.
What changes would you like to see in teacher actions? in student actions?
What questions do you still have about implementing formative assessment practices in your classroom? What processes must be in place in your classroom, grade level, and/or school for FIP to work well?
AssignmentPlease bring on to the next session.
