  • mctownsley Jan 11 @ 9:07 PM EST
    A1) I think if I am doing it well, all classroom assessment would be formative: administered to guide next instructional steps. #sblchat
  • CoachLesterBHS Jan 11 @ 9:07 PM EST
    A1- Inform instruction and as much feedback as possible. #sblchat
  • garnet_hillman - Moderator Jan 11 @ 9:08 PM EST
    A1 The purpose of formative assessment is practice. Students need to practice w/out the influence of points, scores, and grades. #sblchat
  • RoweRikW Jan 11 @ 9:08 PM EST
    A1 - Our Learners see Formative Assessments (FAs) as the opportunity to practice, get feedback, and learn through challenges. #sblchat

    Thanks Ken. Your voice in education is truly appreciated in these discussions #sblchat
    In reply to @kenoc7

    A1 FA allows Ss to see learning as an ongoing process, receive specific feedback to grow, and grow beyond a one shot assignment. #sblchat

  • RoweRikW Jan 11 @ 9:09 PM EST
    A1 - Formative Assessments (FAs) offer the opportunity to close the gap and narrow in on our learning target or Standard. #sblchat
  • kenoc7 Jan 11 @ 9:09 PM EST
    A1 Assessment for “forwarding” learning - gives information for adjustments by teachers and students. NO SCORES. #sblchat

      A6 SA is a touchy subject for me as it implies there is an end to the learning process. #sblchat

    So when do we give SA? End of a grading period? End of a unit? Help.... #sblchat

      Couldn't it be a formal portrait, a moment in time? SA=portrait, FA=snapshots? #sblchat

    Ss need to learn how to be life long leaners, to never be satisfied with their current level understanding #sblchat

    No, but after I golf a round I can always learn something from it and get better #sblchat

    I created my FA, our SA came from district/state. "You've proven you can do it here (FA), now show you can do it anywhere. (SA)" #sblchat

    Can someone please come up with a new word for assessment, its awkward and tough to abbreviate. #sblchat

    I think @stampingout doesn’t stamp out ignorance, he promotes and demonstrates ignorance. #sblchat
