The Teaching Profession
• Everyone feels they can walk in off the street and be a teacher. Because there is the perception that you learn by doing and that there is no knowledge base to draw from…
• We as professionals need to rely on this knowledge base, refer to this knowledge base and challenge this knowledge base.
![Page 8: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Activity
• In your Groups, list some of the reasons we need assessments
![Page 11: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Reasons for Assessments
• Identify a starting point to educate a child,– Do not want to reteach something if a child knows
it• Identify a child's strengths and weaknesses• Identify children that need special help– As a country we have as much as 13% of school
age children with special education– 75 % of sixth graders are 2 years behind in reading

Assessments Importance
• Assessment is used in all walks of life– You are assessed to see if you can drive– Assessed to see if you can be a teacher– Students are assessed to see if they are
progressing like children nationally– Our country is assessed to see how we compare
to other parts of the world
![Page 18: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Assessments Importance
• Assessment can be positive or negative– Positive- if done correctly and used properly can
be helpful– Negative if it is not given properly, interpreted
wrong and used for reasons it was not designed to be used
![Page 19: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Assessments Decisions
• Assessment decision are usually made when the assessment indicates that a child is having a problem
• or when the assessment indicates that a discrepancy exists– Academically– Behaviorally– Physically
![Page 20: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Screening
• Screening is a form of assessment• In many cases, the earlier a problem is
identified, the greater the chance to rectify the problem
![Page 21: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Activity
• In your groups, identify what are some screenings that schools use?
![Page 22: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Screenings
• Vision• Hearing• Height, weight, BMI• Universal screenings ( why is it called
universal)– Reading– Gifted ( in some schools)– math
![Page 23: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Activity
• Define what Progress monitoring is?– Who is it used with?– How often?
![Page 24: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Progress Monitoring
• Originally just used with Special education to determine if a child was making progress
• Now used as part of RTI
![Page 25: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Trajectory Line Use to determine progress
![Page 26: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Monitoring Progress
• Can be done in Math or reading• Can be done with all students• Is instruction working– If not change
• Can be used to see if schools are making progress toward state goals
![Page 27: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Monitoring Progress
• No child left behind and parts of IDEA specify that instructional tools should be evidence based or research based instructional practices
![Page 28: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Monitoring Progress
• Sometimes assessment is used to determine the need for resources– If data proves that there is a weakness in a certain
area of the curriculum or the teaching practice, resources should be allocated to fix the problem
![Page 29: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Special education
• Before RtI, (RtII) entrance into special education was governed by assessment
• An assessment was done to determine that a disability existed
• And assessment was used to determine that a learning need existed
• Both were required in PA ( still are if using discrepancy model)
![Page 30: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Program evaluation
• Assessment data are used to determine if different programs are effective– Two approaches to teaching can be compared– Can compare groups simultaneously or compare
and before and after or two different groups on different years
![Page 31: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
AYP
• Assessment is used to determine AYP– Adequate Yearly Progress
![Page 32: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Determining the type of assessment
• Different assessments are used for different purposes– Determining eligibility for special education– Planning for a lesson– Progress monitoring– Examine behavior– Can assess instruction or curriculum to determine
if that is the problem
![Page 33: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Ideally
– Can assess instruction or curriculum to determine if that is the problem
– Ideally you have good instruction– But you could have poor instruction and that is
what is causing failure, or you could have poor curriculum
![Page 34: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Activity In your groups
• Lets assume that the children in the Philomena School are all capable of learning. They all have average home lives and average or above average intelligence ( except 10% who are special needs)
• Yet they have an inverted triangle, 80 % are basic or below on state and national assessments,
• Determine what are some causes for this?
![Page 36: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Activity Review

Activity
• If you were asked to go in and determine what the problem is at Philomena school, what would you do,
• Devise a plan
![Page 38: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Plan
• The plan could include a number of items including the following:– Observation of instruction;– Recollections
• Interview people who went there or taught there or are familiar with the school, use a structured interview
– Test• Good because they are very objective, and the same for all
– Professional judgment• Eventually, you will need to make some judgments based on
your knowledge and experience about the situation
![Page 39: Assessment Session 1. Introductions Everyone thinks they can teach Most have been in school for at least 12 years They think that anybody can be a teacher](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062401/5a4d1b777f8b9ab0599b7b6d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
