seem to be fairly spot on with the post-test results I accumulated, given room for
the other variables I mentioned before.
According to the assessment data, it would seem that the Cold War Unit was
successful for the most part, and accomplished the majority of the objectives I
wished the students to meet. I did notice while looking through these scores that
many of the students who received lower scores on the post-test were those that
were absent for two or more days throughout the unit. It is challenging to be sure
that those students who miss class will be able to keep up to speed on those
concepts they need to know by the end of the unit. The students who scored high
on the pre-test also scored high on the post, but many did not see as high of an
improvement as other students. One of the goals of my future units and lessons will
be to further challenge those who already know a great deal of the information into
inquiring further into the aspects of the unit that most interest them. As for the
other students, I was really pleased with how much their scores improved by the
end of the unit. Although sometimes it is difficult to account for several variables
(absences, wording, and student learning styles) in pre and post-tests, I do believe
them to be a very useful tools for teachers who are looking to grow and improve
each unit after they have taught it. Constant reflection and review of lessons and
strategies by the teacher will help to consistently improve the learning process for
both the student and the teacher.
