Chapter 15: Assessment of Student Learning
Types of Assessment
Diagnostic: A pre-lesson map — finding strengths and gaps early
Summative: End-of-unit wrap-ups — tests, projects
Formative: Like checkpoints during a journey — quizzes, reflections
Personal Takeaways
I plan to use ongoing formative practices — like exit tickets and quick check-ins — to truly listen to what my students need.
Assessment, to me, isn’t a tool for control — it’s a compass for growth and reflection.
My goal is to build a space where students aren’t afraid to try, fail, and try again
Using Assessment Data
Opens transparent conversations with students and families
Supports individual growth — not one-size-fits-all
Helps refine instruction to fit real needs
Key Principles
Alignment: Tasks must match the actual learning objectives
Clarity: Students should know what’s being assessed and why
Fairness: Every learner gets a level playing field
