    A1: It is important for young learners to self assess so they can stay motivated and on track! #1stchat
  • MrsDDelacruz Sep 24 @ 8:12 PM EDT
    A1 Maybe for students to become more self aware of our expectations. To see how they assess themselves/effort before we do. #1stchat
  • lekadegroot - Moderator Sep 24 @ 8:13 PM EDT
    A1: Self assessment helps them to focus on growth, challenges and problem solving. Process vs product/grade. #1stchat
  • KLirenman Sep 24 @ 8:13 PM EDT
    I love the mention of motivation. Who isn't motivated when they are in control of their own learning. #1stchat
    In reply to @LaureneClark_
  • jinasuhNCSU Sep 24 @ 8:13 PM EDT
    A1: Because it is important for young learners to reflect on and learn from what they have done #1stchat

    So many great answers for Q1. Self assessment is such an important skill for all learners to have and use! Us too! #1stchat
  • KLirenman Sep 24 @ 8:14 PM EDT
    I know time will go fast so Q2 is on deck #1stchat
  • lekadegroot - Moderator Sep 24 @ 8:14 PM EDT
    I agree! Ss will take ownership in their own learning. They are active participant, learning is not passive process. #1stchat
    In reply to @MrsDDelacruz
  • KLirenman Sep 24 @ 8:15 PM EDT
    Is there a difference between evaluation, reflection, and assessment? If so what is the difference? #1stchat
  • Woods1stgrade Sep 24 @ 8:15 PM EDT
    A1: if they learn to self assess than they will begin to be able to be in charge of their learning #1stchat
  • cdmom Sep 24 @ 8:16 PM EDT
    #1stchat A1 Self assessment is growth.

  • lekadegroot - Moderator Sep 24 @ 8:17 PM EDT
    A2: Hmmm They all should be done by both students AND teachers. They help both Ts and Ss grow. #1stchat
  • MsMeganMcDonald Sep 24 @ 8:18 PM EDT
    A2: I consider evaluations and assessments to be more formal & reflections to be more personalized #1stchat
  • hnimblettedu Sep 24 @ 8:18 PM EDT
    A1: I think evaluation is someone else critiquing your work where as reflection and assessment are more personal! All are important #1stchat

    Hi, Caroline! Glad you are here! #1stchat
    In reply to @simpkins3rdgrd
  • KLirenman Sep 24 @ 8:19 PM EDT
    I tend to see an evaluation as a mark. It is an assessment at a specific point in time. #1stchat
  • MrsDDelacruz Sep 24 @ 8:19 PM EDT
    A2: There are differences between evaluation, reflection, and assessment but they are used together to assess ss and themselves. #1stchat
  • mflicek1 Sep 24 @ 8:19 PM EDT
    Hello #1stchat! Sorry to join in late, my mother in law is here and just finished watching the Packers WIN!
  • KLirenman Sep 24 @ 8:19 PM EDT
    A2 I see a reflection as a student's review of what they did. I'd agree it's more personal to the learning. #1stchat
  • KLirenman Sep 24 @ 8:20 PM EDT
    A2 But I see an assessment a combination of both but it also includes the next steps with learning. #1stchat
  • mflicek1 Sep 24 @ 8:20 PM EDT
    A1:in order for them to grow, they need to be aware of areas to grow in and take ownership even in 1st #1stchat

    In reply to @mflicek1
  • simpkins3rdgrd Sep 24 @ 8:20 PM EDT
    A1: Ss need buy in for their own learning, so they need to know where they started and where they end in the learning process. #1stchat

    Do we ever end in the learning process???? :-) #1stchat

    #1stchat A2 Evaluation observation of what someone knows, reflection is how you may see something, assessment is overview of something ???

  • tracey_bleakley Sep 24 @ 8:27 PM EDT
    A3 I have been trying to build in more informal self assessment as we set up systems and do team building this year. #1stchat
  • tpizzie1 Sep 24 @ 8:27 PM EDT
    My Ss self-assess by checking rubric, comparing to stand out work from peers, and using their reflections. Then rate their LOM #1stchat
  • MrsDDelacruz Sep 24 @ 8:27 PM EDT
    A3: Not with academics but I am starting to see the importance. However, I do ask them to reflect on their choices for behavior. #1stchat

    Evaluation is authenticity; assessment how much is learned; and reflection is about looking back on the process. #1stchat
