Start with Why
Why is the evidence of student learning section important?
Evidence of student learning provides teachers, students, and parents with a means to reflect upon if the desired learning has happened. Evidence:
identifies where students are currently in their learning
provides recalibration as to where students should be by the end of the year
indicates what learning still needs to occur to close the gap.
An activity that proves worthwhile is taking time as a faculty to study and implement assessment techniques that help them rehearse identifying what students know, what they still need to know, and how to adjust future instruction to close the gap. This type of activity ask the questions:
What does this assessment show me that students know?
Where do students need to be?
What instructional choices can I make to close the gap?
