Question: What would you like to assess in the classroom?
(Find a common theme among the group)
……………………is that faculty members are not fully involved in the process, and the results of the institutional process are rarely used to make a difference in the classroom.
Problem we face……………………
What is classroom assessment?
It is an approach designed to help teachers find out what students are learning in the classroom and how well they are learning it.
Three questions to consider
What are the essential skills and knowledge I am trying to teach? How can I find out whether students are learning them? How can I help students learn better?
Question: How do you assess?
Exercise: Step 1: Identify one area in the course that you would like to assess
Step 2: How will you assess it?
Why do we need to assess?
Help students learn more effectively and efficiently
Continuous flow of accurate information
Empower teachers and STUDENTS
