Case: Benchmark Assessments
Mrs. Pope's school requires that the teachers give math Benchmark assessments every 9 weeks that are based on the curriculum map. Mrs. Pope is a week behind schedule so there are 5 questions on the test that she has not covered yet. Also, her students know that this assessment does not count for a grade so many of them do not take the test seriously and do not give 100%. With this being said, Mrs. Pope's benchmark scores are below average. How can Mrs. Pope use the data from the test to improve instruction if she know's the data is not accurate?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Mrs. Pope should ask the principal of she can put the benchmarks in a portfolio to show parents. Our teachers use portfolios to gather data, show student progress, and allow students to showcase work they are proud of. Allowing benchmarks to have a purpose opens the classroom up for dialog to make them more reliable and interesting. |
