  2. Effective Assessment for Student Engagement – What is the target? • Syllabus links and clear outcomes. Fewer not more for a deep understanding • Inclusive of all students • Clear instructions • Balanced, comprehensive, varied • Fair, inclusive, valid, reliable • Ongoing, sequential • Challenging tasks fostering a deep understanding and inviting risk taking • Student centred • Supported by models, scaffolds and exemplar samples • Reflects adjustments to teaching and learning

  4. Standardised Testing vs Authentic Assessment • Reduces children’s rich and complex lives to a collection of scores, percentiles and grades • Creates stresses that negatively affect a child’s performance • Pressures teachers to narrow their curriculum to only what is tested on the exam • Gives the teacher a felt sense of the child’s unique experience as a learner • Provides interesting, active, lively and exciting experiences • Allows teachers to develop meaningful curricula and assess within the context of that program Armstrong, T. (2009). Multiple Intelligences in the Classroom. ASCD. Alexandria.,Vancouver.

What is Authentic Assessment? “Authentic assessment is when we directly examine student performance on worthy intellectual tasks” (1) “Performances and product requirements that are faithful to real world demands, opportunities and constraints, testing students on their ability to do the subject and transfer learning effectively” (2) What does this mean? What is a worthy intellectual task? What are some types of authentic assessment? Wiggins, G. (1990). Retrieved June 15, 2010 from www.pareonline.net (2) Wiggins, G.
