Case: Benchmarks
In my school, we have to give benchmarks every 4.5 weeks. We are expected to show student growth with our data from these tests, however, these tests are not allowed be counted as grades. Students know this, and many do not try at all on these tests, which results in no growth. We have brought this issue up with administration, but have no definite answer for how we can motivate students to try their best on these tests. We've tried talking to students about their scores and any growth they have made, and some students do care, but most do not. So, we still have many students who will bubble answers and turn in their test in five minutes. Any suggestions for motivating students to try their best on a test that won't affect their grade?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
One suggestion could be to allow student input on what they would like to receive for their best effort on the benchmark. For example, students might want technology time, extra recess, lunch outside, etc. Knowing what motivates them to do their best would probably be a great place to start. |
