EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY • What is Curriculum Assessment? • Curriculum assessment is a process of gathering and analyzing information from multiple sources in order to improve student learning in sustainable ways. • What is the role of assessment in the curriculum? • Assessment is embedded in the learning process. It is tightly interconnected with curriculum and instruction. As teachers and students work towards the achievement of curriculum outcomes, assessment plays a constant role in informing instruction, guiding the student's next steps, and checking progress and achievement. • A TEACHER AS ASSESSOR • As an assessor, a teacher must think critically, creatively, and logically. Assessing students gives the teacher an idea of how students learn, their attitudes, what skills they have, what skills they are working on, and how they are progressing. • What is the role of Teacher in a learning process? • Teachers are best known for the role of educating the students that are placed in their care. Beyond that, teachers serve many other roles in the classroom. Teachers set the tone of their classrooms, build a warm environment, mentor and nurture students, become role models, and listen and look for signs of trouble. • PURPOSE OF ASSESSMENT • 1. Assessment drives instruction • A pre-test or needs assessment informs instructors what students know and do not know at the outset, setting the direction of a course. If done well, the information garnered will highlight the gap between existing knowledge and a desired outcome. • 2. Assessment drives learning • What and how students learn depends to a major extent on how they think they will be assessed. Assessment practices must send the right signals to students about what to study, how to study, and the relative time to spend on concepts and skills in a course. • 3. Assessment informs students of their progress • Effective assessment provides students with a sense of what they know and don’t know about a subject. If done well, the feedback provided to students will indicate to them how to improve their performance. • 4. Assessment informs teaching practice • Reflection on student accomplishments offers instructors insights on the effectiveness of their teaching strategies. By systematically gathering, analyzing, and interpreting evidence we can determine how well student learning matches our outcomes / expectations for a lesson, unit or course. • -- Created using Powtoon -- Free sign up at http://www.powtoon.com/youtube/ -- Create animated videos and animated presentations for free.
