Standard 2.11 Formative and Summative Data

Teachers at Payson High School collaborate with other teachers in the school district to create course frameworks that include common assessment plans, common learning objectives, and benchmark tests. Teams can then meet together to discuss data collected from common assessments.

Teachers use Canvas to collect important data about student learning and growth. Canvas has a robust statistics system that allows teachers to explore this data effectively. For example, linked here you will find two documents of test data from a Chemistry exam exported from Canvas. One is an item analysis and the other is a summary of total scores. Data tools like this allow teachers to monitor student learning and tactically adjust instruction.
