Case: Online Assessments
Fourth grade in our county is taking their standardized test on the computer for the first time. In order to give them practice with this format, I give them their weekly tests online. Thy are not taking it seriously, however. With the online format, they do not feel the need to go back and review answers like they did when they had a scantron and a booklet. I have implemented choice boards where if they score a passing percentage, they are able to pick a reward. I know it is the format because if they fail, I print out the text and have them take it with pencil and paper before they see their score to compare. On average, 65% of the students who fail online pass when retaken with pencil and paper.
I am hoping they will take it more seriously when it comes to the standardized test, but I don't want to rest on assumptions. How can I get them to go back and check their work?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
You are on the right track with implementing choice boards. Positive reinforcement is a good strategy. Be explicit with your expectations and reinforce the importance of rechecking your work. Look into social stories that have positive outcomes for those that are recheck work and give examples of what can happen when people are careless with paperwork. |
