Case: Students who struggle on test
During instruction and formative assessments, students seem to understand the content that I am teaching. They answer questions correctly, they complete work correctly and work well with their group members. However, when test time comes around, a great deal of students do not perform as well. I sometimes believe they have test anxiety. Some of the ones who score poorly on the test are ones who scored well on formative assessments. Any advice?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As the professional teacher and content specialist you have the right to count any assessment as a test. As long as students can justify to you as the content specialist that they understand the material I believe that student deserves a good grade on that material. After all it is not about the grade, it is about ensuring students are successfully learning. |

Comments: Yes, it is about learning vs a good test grade. But how does this address the test anxiety students feel since tests dominate our schooling? |

Comments: Although I agree with this, it won't help the students to be prepared for test-taking outside of this one class. |
