Description | | This
3 hour graduate course will consist of 7 Thursday and 1 Monday evening sessions
starting September 21, 2017. The dates are listed below.
This course is a
structured study of the assessment practices that impact student learning.
These strategies are presented in the book Seven Strategies of
Assessment for Learning (Jan Chappuis, 2015). Using the chapters of
the book as a framework, participants will be challenged to consider the what,
why, and how of using well-planned, research-supported classroom assessment
practices that improve student motivation and achievement. Throughout the
course, participants will work in learning teams to discuss concepts in the
text, to share what they tried in the classroom, and to create further applications suited to the needs of their students.
Course Objectives:
The participants will
know how to:
* Provide students with a clear
and understandable vision of the intended learning.
* Use examples and models of
strong and weak work to strengthen students’ understanding of the
assessment practices.
* Offer effective feedback
focused on the intended learning.
* Teach students to self-assess
and set specific and challenging goals for further learning.
* Design practice lessons that
focus on one learning target or aspect of quality at a time.

revision.
