Oval Three: Learning Experiences - Unit Design
OUTCOMES
 All will be familiar with process for prioritizing and
unwrapping standards

questions to match unwrapped standards
 All will be familiar with process to match cognitive levels of
unwrapped standards and assessment items
 All will develop a lesson/unit based on priority, unwrapped
standard
THE

How will the
students and I
know when
they are
successful?
Task

NEXT SESSION
 The focus of the next session is to create a series of lessons
or unit aligned with priority, unwrapped standards
 You will have approximately one hour to start work – please
bring what you will need: computer, text, etc.…..
 We will also review and refine assessment items drafted today
NORMS
What worked well?
What might need
attention?
WHAT DO YOU REMEMBER…
 Refer to posted charts
 Explain to your group
your work from last
time
 If you worked
individually, find
another individual
 Find someone from
another group and
share your thinking and
work from last session
LOOKING AT ASSESSMENT
PURPOSE OF ASSESSMENT
 Identify if students have
mastered concepts or skills in
standard
 Evaluate the ef fectiveness of
instructional strategies
 Motivate students to be more
engaged in learning
 Help students learn content
through application and other
reasoning skills
 Help students develop positive
attitudes toward a subject
 Communicate expectations to
students
 Give students feedback about
what they know and can do
 Show students what they need
to focus on to improve their
under standing
 Encourage student self evaluation
 Determine repor t card grades
 Communicate to parents what
students presently know and
can do

Formative

AT YOUR TABLES….
Brainstorm

Share
Formative
vs.
Summative
FORMATIVE? SUMMATIVE?
A science teacher has students complete
a graphic organizer identifying the
different parts of a cell. He grades the
assignment and returns it to students. He
speaks privately with a few students (who
did not pass) to tell them that they’ll need
to study more since this information will
be on the unit test at the end of the
chapter.
FORMATIVE? SUMMATIVE?
A Kindergarten teacher asks her
students to write their first
name and draw a self-portrait.
She identifies those students
who can’t spell their name and
targets them for specific
sound/letter instruction.
FORMATIVE? SUMMATIVE?
Each student in Jazz Band
played an on-demand
musical piece as part of
their final exam. The score
was factored in and became
a part of their final average.
An assessment is formative if it…
Occurs during the
learning process
Identifies students
experiencing
difficulties
Results are used to
inform & modify
instruction
(assessment for
learning)
Informs teachers as
to the effectiveness
of instruction for
current students
Provides feedback to
students on their
progress toward
becoming proficient
Typically are NOT
used to assign
grades
Formative
vs.
Summative
Exit/Entrance
Slips
Journals
Questioning
Discussions
Observations
Whiteboards
Examples of
Formative
Assessments
An assessment is summative if it…
Occurs after the
learning process has
ended (assessment
of learning)
Is not used to
improve students’
understanding of
content
Results are used to
inform stakeholders
of individual student
achievement
Informs teachers as
to the effectiveness
of instruction for
future students
Informs students
about their
academic standing
in relation to others
Assigns a grade to
indicate student
progress at a
specified point in
time

SETTING THE STAGE FOR
COMMON ASSESSMENTS
What
does
common
mean?
COMMON? NOT COMMON?
The 5th grade team collaboratively
designs an assessment that is focused
on common learning goals. Each
teacher grades his/her own
assessments & they reconvene to
discuss the results. During the analysis,
one teacher reveals she gave an
additional week’s worth of instruction
to students prior to administering it
because she felt they needed more
time to master the material.
What
does
common
mean?
COMMON? NOT COMMON?
Three English 7 teachers each
develop a section (accompanied by
an answer key or rubric) for a short
story unit assessment and combine
them into one. All students will take
the assessment, but some of the
assessment items are generic so the
teachers can modify them to fit the
stories taught.
What
does
common
mean?
COMMON? NOT COMMON?
A team of 10th grade
Geometry teachers agree to
administer the quiz located
at the end of each chapter to
all students. They don’t teach
the same units at the same
time, but all the units are
taught before the end of the
year.
What
does
common
mean?
SOUND FAMILIAR?
Teach, test,
and hope for
the best
I taught it,
they just
didn’t
learn it.
Spray and
pray
The more you teach
without finding out who
understands the
information and who
doesn’t, the greater the
likelihood that only
already-proficient
students will succeed.
Grant Wiggins, 2006

Which

 Select the type of assessment that best matches the RIGOR or

ef ficient for your intervention.
