In the class Educ 303 provided by Trinity Christian College, students were asked to analyze Standard seven and write an analysis on it using a classroom example. Standard 7 - Assessment – The competent teacher understands and uses appropriate formative and summative assessments to determine student needs, monitor student progress, and measure student growth, and student outcomes. The teacher makes decisions driven by data and evaluates curricular and instructional effectiveness and adjusts practices to meet the needs of each student. A successful teacher maintains useful and accurate records of student work and performance to reference back to when creating lesson plans. Appropriately uses a variety of formal and informal assessments to evaluate the understanding, progress, and performance of an individual student and the class as a whole. As well as, conducts assessments to determine student performance levels, identify learning targets, select appropriate research-based instructional strategies, and implement instruction to enhance learning outcomes.
The analysis above is from a classroom with students ranging from 19-21 years old. No student has had any prior education course knowledge and was asked to take this in-home formative assessment with no outside sources. The data collected allowed me to see areas of struggle and areas in which I should focus on during the course. Standard seven focus on the use of assesments to be able to track student improvement. The test being analyzed in this section is the first of upcoming assesment to see where students stand in regards to their prior knowledge.
