HS MASS II – Sessions 3 & 4
Balanced Assessment
![Page 2: Balanced Assessment Revised](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042817/55a0b0ce1a28ab2d078b485d/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Formative vs. Summative
• In groups of 3, list three differences between formative and summative assessments.
• Compare your responses to “Comparing Assessment for and of learning”.
• In your group, take one minute to discuss your responses vs. handout.

• Three questions educators and students will be able to answer through the use of formative assessment:
– Where am I going?– Where am I now?– How can I close the gap?
![Page 4: Balanced Assessment Revised](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042817/55a0b0ce1a28ab2d078b485d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Keys to Quality Classroom Assessments
• Key 1: Clear Purpose
– Do the assessment authors have a clear picture of how the assessment results will be used and by whom?
![Page 5: Balanced Assessment Revised](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042817/55a0b0ce1a28ab2d078b485d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Keys to Quality Classroom Assessments
• Key 2: Clear Targets
– Do the assessment authors have a clear picture of what they are trying to measure?

• How about this? Does this make it easier to find the hexagon?

“Teachers and students can hit any target they can see and will hold still.”
Rick Stiggins
What is the relationship
between this statement
and the establishment of
clear targets?
Key 2: Clear Targets

Keys to Quality Classroom Assessments
• Key 3: Sound Design
– Have the assessment developers translated the learning targets into high-quality assessments that will yield accurate results?
![Page 12: Balanced Assessment Revised](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042817/55a0b0ce1a28ab2d078b485d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Keys to Quality Classroom Assessments
• Key 4: Effective Communication
– Have the assessment developers planned for adequately managing information from the assessment and reporting it in ways that will meet users’ needs?
According to Harvard Researcher John Hattie
“..feedback is the most powerful single innovation that enhances student achievement.”

Keys to Quality Classroom Assessments
• Key 5: Student Involvement
– Are students involved in the assessment?
![Page 14: Balanced Assessment Revised](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042817/55a0b0ce1a28ab2d078b485d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Student Self Assessment Activity
• Let’s look at ways in which students can be actively involved in the formative assessment process.
• Middle school example: You Be George
• Secondary example

Seven Strategies of Assessment for Learning
– Question 1:
– Where am I going?• Strategy # 1: Provide clear and understandable
vision of the learning target.• Strategy # 2: Use and post student
examples/models (anonymous weak & strong)
![Page 16: Balanced Assessment Revised](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042817/55a0b0ce1a28ab2d078b485d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Seven Strategies of Assessment for Learning
– Question 2:
– Where am I now?• Strategy # 3: Offer students frequent, descriptive
feedback.• Strategy # 4: Teach Students to Self Assess and
set Goals
![Page 17: Balanced Assessment Revised](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042817/55a0b0ce1a28ab2d078b485d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Seven Strategies of Assessment for Learning
– Question 3:
– How can I close the gap? • Strategy # 5: Design lessons that focus on one
learning target at a time• Strategy # 6: Teach students focused self-revision• Strategy # 7: Engage students in self-reflection;
allow for student record keeping.

A closer look at Good Design
• Once a target has been identified; What type of target is it?
– Knowledge / Understanding– Reasoning– Skills– Products
Key 3: Good Design
![Page 19: Balanced Assessment Revised](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042817/55a0b0ce1a28ab2d078b485d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• Which assessment method would best fit the target?– Selected response– Extended written response– Performance assessment– Personal communication

General Guidelines for Test Question Design
• Keep wording simple and focused. Aim for the lowest possible reading level.
• Ask a full question in the stem.• Eliminate clues to the correct answer either within the
question or across questions within a test.• Do not make the correct answer obvious to students who
have not studied the material.• Highlight critical, easily overlooked words. Examples:
most, not, least, except.• Have a qualified colleague read your items to ensure
appropriateness.• Double check the scoring key for accuracy before scoring.
![Page 23: Balanced Assessment Revised](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042817/55a0b0ce1a28ab2d078b485d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Guidelines for Multiple Choice• Ask a complete question to get the item started (if you
can).• Do not repeat the same words within each response.
Instead, reword the item stem.• Be sure there is only one correct or best answer.• Word response options as briefly as possible and be sure
they are grammatically parallel.• Make all response items the same length.• Don’t use all of the above or none of the above merely to
fill space.• Use always or never in your answer choices with caution.• It is OK to vary the number of response options presented
as appropriate to pose the problem you want your students to solve.

Biology• In the investigation of body fluids a
scientist compared the concentrations of certain ions in saliva and blood plasma. These graphs show the results.
5. According to the graphs,
g. the concentration of chlorine ion in saliva and plasma are approximately equal.
h. the concentration of potassium ion in saliva and plasma are approximately equal.
i. the concentration of bicarbonate ion in saliva is much less than that in plasma.
j. the concentration of sodium ion in saliva and potassium ion in plasma are approximately equal.

1. What might this be a graph of? Put titles and numbers on the graph to show what you mean.
2. Write down everything you know from your graph.

Assessment Question Activity
• Using one of your targets from the Session 2 activity, work in groups of 4 to generate a multiple choice assessment question. Limit possible answers to a maximum of four.
• Once generated, write it on poster paper and hang on wall.
• Each group will now start at their own question, move clockwise and review each question.
• Leave comments on each regarding bias, clarity and focus.
