Intern Class - Monday, April 26, 2010

Tonight was another wonderful opportunity to share some things with our intern class at AHS.  Here was the agenda:

1. 5:30 - Introductions
2. 5:45 - Teach Like a Champion - Simple steps to improve the classroom.
3. 6:30 - Assessment for Learning – explain the paper that will be done for Anders.  Use power point to discuss AFL techniques.  Especially focus on Targets, Relate “grading” to learning, Limit attributes to individual achievement.
4. 8:00 - Give them time to work on their paper.

Write a one page, 3 paragraph paper (at least) that explains your Assessment Philosophy.

• How do you currently assess student learning?
• What have been the biggest factors that have determined your assessment beliefs and practices?
• How do you feel you will change and adapt in the 2010-2011 school year?
