Case: How do I address poor quiz/test results? I just began my third year of teaching, and while in many ways I feel much more comfortable with all the systems I've developed, I still haven't come up with a good way to review poor class tests/quizzes. Last week, I gave my 7th grade self-contained math classes a quick quiz on LCM, GCF, and simplifying fractions. The average score was about 60%. I'll continue to review the concepts in class of course, but I'm not sure how to handle handing it back. Should I hand it back, have them look over my comments, stick it in their data binders, and move on? Or do I go over the most frequently missed questions? Or should I have them do their own quiz corrections? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) How is classwork going? Are quiz results reflective of the work they are doing on a daily basis? If classwork does not match quiz and test results, I would look at the difference between the two. Are questions worded differently or set up differently? I would hand quizzes back, and have students work in partners to figure out what they did wrong. If they can correctly answer and tell why they were marked wrong on the quiz/test, give them half credit for the new responses. |
