As many of you are wrapping up lessons and prepping for midterms/finals, we combined our top 5 posts about summative assessments that have helped us along the way. It’s the “finals” countdown!
Exams, finals, assessments… OH MY! – A good reminder to keep it relevant!
3 Steps for Creating an Engaging Presentational Assessment – This was the first type of assessment I tried when I was transitioning to proficiency-based teaching. It was a game changer!
4 Steps for Smooth Interpersonal Assessments – These are my favorite because the students walk away feeling so proud of what they can do.
3 Steps to Create an Interpretive Final Assessment – Over time, I’m reconsidering how I prefer to assess interpretive skills, but this post still shows valuable ideas I’ve used.
Integrated Performance Assessments – This is the direction I’m heading, especially for assessing interpretive skills.
Hope this helps! And I’m sure no teacher is actually counting down the days until winter break, right? 😉
So fabulous! You gave me a reminder that the time to think about assessments is right after the semester ends, so you can rethink what you did — and didn’t do. Thank you for your brilliance, even from afar!
