  1. New Jersey Center for Teaching and Learning Empowering Teachers …Leading Change www.njctl.org

  2. Using Formative Assessment to Guide Teaching NJEA Convention - November 10, 2011 Rosemary Knab Melissa Axelsson Peggy Stewart www.njctl.org

  3. Formative vs. Summative Assessment • Summative – state and other standardized tests, teacher made tests, quizzes • Formative • Assessment of student knowledge that occurs during the lesson • Redesigning instruction on the spot to ensure student understanding and mastery of concepts

  4. Central Idea of Formative Assessment Students and teachers Using evidence of learning To adapt teaching and learning To meet immediate learning needs Minute-to-minute and day-by-day

  5. Classroom Impact • Assumptions • Failure is part of learning • Teacher’s role shifts from a focus on teaching to a focus on learning • Student’s role changes from receptivity to activity • Student-teacher relationship shifts from adversaries to collaborators • Students take shared responsibility for learning

  6. Some Examples • Simple Observation • Asking lots of questions • Collaborative Learning • Weekly Summaries • Journals • Personal Response Systems (clickers)

  7. PSI and PMI

  8. Progressive Science Initiative (PSI) & Progressive Mathematics Initiative (PMI) • PSI developed to teach HS science • PSI then used to create HS science teachers • PMI uses PSI Methods to teach K-12 math • PMI will be used to create K-12 math teachers

  9. Progressive Science Initiative (PSI) & Progressive Mathematics Initiative (PMI) • Developed in 1 NJ school: 1999 - present • Extended to 50+ NJ schools: 2007 – present • Extended to Argentina: 2010 - present • Extending to RI and CO: 2011

  10. Free Digital Course Content • 22 Courses Posted • All of K-12 Mathematics • College Algebra • All of High School Science

  11. Free Digital Course Content • About 40,000 slides • 50+ writers • At 1 second per slide, it would take 10 hours to see them all • Growing rapidly

  12. Free Digital Course Content • Everyone can see all the content, but the assessments, at www.njctl.org • Free registration for teachers to get access to all assessments

  18. Teacher Training: New Jersey In last two years, we created about • 70 new physics teachers • 25 new chemistry teachers And trained in PSI-PMI Methods about • 25 already certified science teachers • 100 already certified mathematics teachers

  19. Teacher Training: New Jersey Those teachers taught, or are teaching • 10,000 students Physics • 500 students AP Physics B • 2500 students Chemistry • 150 students AP Chemistry • 4000 students mathematics

  20. Teacher Training: Other States • Rhode Island • Pilot started with summer 2011 training of 4 teachers • Should start training new teachers, with local trainers, in July, 2012 • Colorado • Morgridge Family Foundation funding implementation • Working with districts with more than 250k students

  21. Argentina • 2011 Results • Spanish translations of physics and some math • Created 10 trainers • Created 25 new physics teachers • Trained 25 math teachers • 2012 Plan • Spanish translations of Chemistry, AP Physics B, and more mathematics • Creating new 20 new trainers and training 100 new teachers

  22. Africa World Bank Mission to The Gambia in December • Proposal to pilot a Train the Trainers model • Scalable to all of The Gambia • Then, the African Union (600,000 schools)

  23. PSI-PMI Paradigm Shift • Digital technology has enabled a new paradigm for teaching and learning • There’s no reason to build a new system with the old paradigm. • Build with the new paradigm

  24. PSI-PMI Paradigm Shift Arthur Levine, president of the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation, describes PSI-PMI in these words: “There is a shift from teaching to learning, from working alone to collaboration, from passive to active learning, from analog to digital, from teaching a class to sharing authority for educating all the kids at a school, or beyond.”

  25. PSI-PMI Paradigm Shift From teaching To learning

  26. PSI-PMI Paradigm Shift From teacher-centered To student-centered

  27. PSI-PMI Paradigm Shift From passive learning To active learning

  28. PSI-PMI Paradigm Shift From teacher isolation To teacher collaboration

  29. PSI-PMI Paradigm Shift From schools and classrooms being private and hidden To being public and visible

  30. PSI-PMI Paradigm Shift From static analog textbooks To continuously improving digital content

  31. PSI-PMI Paradigm Shift From teachers being responsible for only their students To being responsible for all students

  32. PSI-PMI Methods • Curriculum • Pedagogy • Formative Assessment • Summative Assessment and Grading • Technology • Face-to-Face and Virtual PLCs

  33. Pedagogy Social Constructivism Plus Direct Instruction

  34. Pedagogy Social Constructivism • Round Tables • Group Problem Solving • Heterogeneous setting

  35. Pedagogy Direct Instruction • Interactive White Board (IWB) Notebook presentation • Student Response Formative Assessment • Teacher as part of social group

  36. Summative Assessment • Grades based only on what students know and can do – Tests, quizzes and labs • Retakes for all assessments • Grades are not subjective • Correlated to End of Course Tests (APs, EOC Algebra I, Common Core, etc.)

  37. Formative Assessment Student Responders Anonymous student polling during class to guide instruction

  38. PSI-PMI Experience • Direct Instruction • Formative Assessment

  39. Learning Forward – National Report

  40. Learning Forward – National Report “The New Jersey Center for Teaching and Learning (NJCTL) has been doing groundbreaking professional development work in math and science instruction as well…using the innovative curriculum of 2006 New Jersey Teacher of the Year Robert Goodman…to create the Progressive Science Initiative….”
