Selection:

Clear Purpose

Learning target(s) this selection addresses:

Know how formative and summative assessment fit into a balanced

assessment system.
Understand the impact of formative assessment on student achievement.
Describe major differences between formative and summative assessment.
Understand how formative and summative assessment relate to assessment
quality.
Know what the Seven Strategies of Assessment for Learning are and how they
connect to research on formative assessment.

What this selection illustrates about my learning/why I chose this selection:

I chose this section because I need to improve on my assessment skills. I need to be able
to tell my students which assessments will help them master the learning target and which
will be an assessment of their learning.
The activities I completed in this chapter helped me evaluate what I am currently doing in
my classroom. This allowed me to reflect on the ways in which I could improve my
teaching practices.
The activities indicated areas in which I need to make changes during my curriculum
rewrite this coming year. Planning time for feedback and time for students to act on that
feedback will be incorporated into my new curriculum.
Unit outlines that indicate which assessments are for student learning and which
assessments are of student learning is another piece of evidence of what I got out of this
chapter. This outline has really helped me digest which assessments are for student
learning and which are of student learning.
