to you the evaluation system for this school year. Since St. Patrick Math-Sci School will implement a Full Online Distance Learning Program, the assessment and the giving of feedback shall also be conducted online. The formative assessment of St. Patrick Math-Sci School will be conducted by gathering information all the way throughout the online course. This information will then be used to guide teaching and to improve learning and performance. The key component of formative assessment is feedback, whether the assessment is a graded online quiz, or written assignment, or student participation in a discussion forum. Formative assessment will provide: Evidence that learners engage and participate; Demonstrable measures of learner progress within the course; Ways to give feedback to learners; Opportunities for learners to apply their knowledge and skills and identify where they lack understanding.
The summative assessment of St. Patrick Math-Sci School
will be conducted by gathering and analyzing students at the conclusion of an online course whether students have achieved identified goals. Summative assessments will result in a score or grade. A culminating online exam or online performance task is an example of the summative assessment that will be utilized by the school.
Both assessment activities therefore are integrated into
several parts of the course, providing ongoing feedback. In assessing student learning, St. Patrick Math-Sci School will follow this rubric: In conducting online assessment, St. Patrick Math-Sci School will schedule the students in this manner: M/T/TH/F:
8:00-10:00 Grades 1 to 12
10:00-10:15 Snack Break
10:15-11:15 Pre-school Level 3
11:15-12:00 Lunch Break
12:00-2:00 Grades 1 to 12
2:00-2:15 Snack Break
2:15-3:15 Pre-school Level 2
3:15-3:30 Snack Break
3:30-4:30 Pre-school Level 1
In determining where a learner is excelling and where
he/she needs practice, St. Patrick Math-Sci School will administer:
1. Quizzes
- Quizzes are an excellent way to engage student
learning, particularly when paired with technology. Quiz answers can take a number of forms, from short answer to true/false and multiple choice. One benefit of quizzes is that they are short and easy to assess. Another is that, with digitally designed quizzes, question order and options can be randomized, so each student’s quiz is unique.
2. Fill-in-the-Blank Cloze Activity
- For a quick, short answer assessment tool cloze
activities are a great fill-in-the-blank alternative. To complete this option, teachers write a series of statements about important lesson points, replacing key topic terminology with blank spaces. This is similar to a multiple choice question, except students have a wider choice of options in that they must choose the correct term from a larger word bank, or come up with the term themselves, based on what they remember from the lesson. This type of assessment may take the same form as the quiz above. Teachers can assess via a digital medium in real time, by asking students to mark their peers, by collecting and marking overnight, or a combination thereof.
3. Matching Questions
- Similar to multiple choice questions in quizzes,
matching questions offer students a bank of words or phrases from which to choose their answers. When using matching questions, teachers provide text and/or images and ask students to pick an option from column A, and the corresponding matching option in column B. Unlike multiple choice questions, matching questions are not limited to 3 or 4 options, making matching questions a little more difficult to solve via process of elimination. Matching questions are great tools for minds-on activities. They also work well as diagnostic and formative assessments, and/or as quiz questions.
4. Forum Post
- Asking students to contribute to a forum post is an
excellent way to gauge student understanding, pique their interest, and support their learning. In this activity, students are given a critical thinking question based on a lesson or a reading, and are asked to reflect on both. Their answers are posted to a forum and their peers are given the chance to respond. Parameters may be set with respect to initial posts and peer responses. When closed, the teacher can view the forum to see how students are engaging with the material.
5. Peer Evaluation and Review
- Participating in a forum fosters communication
between students. Peer evaluation and review allows students to anonymously review and edit each other’s work.
6. Poll/Quiz results in real time
- Conducting a student poll is a great way for students to
answer questions truthfully and anonymously, and to see, in real time, how they stack up to the rest of the class. Polls are made especially powerful when paired with a forum post or live quiz. Students may be polled first, and asked to explain why they voted in the way they did in a forum post.
7. Exit Cards
- Exit cards, also called “minute papers” are question-
and-answer style tasks that students must complete in the final 5 or 10 minutes of a class. Though they may contain questions similar to those covered in the quiz and fill-in-the-blank sections above, they are most useful when students are asked to exercise critical thinking ability in a short answer response. Students may be asked a single question requiring one or more sentences, to summarize the main points of the lesson, or to complete a task, such as solving a math equation or writing a thematic statement for a piece of literature. Exit cards are quick to assess, as they contain only a few sentences at most, but they can help the teacher gauge student understanding of learning targets in a short amount of time.
In those ways, the teacher can determine whether the
learner understands the lessons delivered online. If the learner has difficulty understanding the concepts, then the teacher may conduct remediation.
The learner’s participation in online learning is tracked with
the use of Learning Management System. In our case, it is the Kite Academy platform. The parents of learners will be given access to the said LMS so they can conveniently track on the performances of their children and immediately make feedback thereof with the use of the internal messaging system.
