    IA1: ELL reporting standards haven't changed, yet I co-taught in many classrooms with students reporting in core competencies. #bcedchat
  • dramaqueen4 Jun 11 @ 10:08 PM EDT
    #bcedchat A1: I blended core & curr competencies into my reporting out to parents, but I marked too much. Goal: more formative descriptive

    Here are the survey results so far! #bcedchat
  • dramaqueen4 Jun 11 @ 10:11 PM EDT
    #bcedchat A1: I found that Ss needed training wheels for self assessing. Choices to pick from and think from. Good starting points
  • vicki_den Jun 11 @ 10:11 PM EDT
    #bcedchat A1-1 I made my own continuum of learning for my program and used it in term 2 but got no feedback from parents or teachers.
  • KennethHeadley - Moderator Jun 11 @ 10:11 PM EDT
    A1- Biggest shift was not trying to mark everything- why grade practice? #bcedchat
  • MsVictoriaOlson Jun 11 @ 10:11 PM EDT
    Wish for some of the old and some of the new. Missing some of the standards-based reporting we did, but like to expand commentary #bcedchat

    #bcedchat A1-2 I liked it better than reporting out charts of WJ & PM benchmark scores though. Felt more "humane" ... less clinical.
  • KennethHeadley - Moderator Jun 11 @ 10:13 PM EDT
    Yeah, especially at the highschool level! They change their effort based on whether or not it was being marked #bcedchat

  • dramaqueen4 Jun 11 @ 10:14 PM EDT
    And here is what I mean by training wheels #bcedchat A1
  • brynmw Jun 11 @ 10:14 PM EDT
    A2: ine of my colleagues used an school mural to self report core competencies. Such a great thing. Will try next year. #bcedchat
  • CraigMah - Moderator Jun 11 @ 10:14 PM EDT
    Curious. Do students/parents see the insert? #bcedchat
    In reply to @MsVanBalkom, @brynmw
  • MsVictoriaOlson Jun 11 @ 10:14 PM EDT
    I'm also concerned that there isn't a fluency in the new curric language (yet) but we report as if there is. Learning curve 4 all #bcedchat

    A2. Each Textiles 12 student project "mark" is derived from a convo w/ the student. No mark sheets have been used. #bcedchat
  • MsVanBalkom Jun 11 @ 10:14 PM EDT
    I hope so! They are sent in the report cards. #bcedchat

    #bcedchat A1-3 I also had the kids make their own self-assessment booklets using I Can statements. They will go home this term w/ report.
  • CraigMah - Moderator Jun 11 @ 10:15 PM EDT
    Agreed! I think the transition didn't include thoughts on good practices beforehand. #bcedchat
    In reply to @MsVictoriaOlson, @RosePillay1
  • MsVictoriaOlson Jun 11 @ 10:15 PM EDT
    Not exactly. Ss will be creating @explainevrythng videos reflecting on each competency & artifacts to explain. Then post to KB. #bcedchat

  • MsVictoriaOlson Jun 11 @ 10:18 PM EDT
    It ain't pretty. Clunky, not user friendly, & format makes it hard to zero in on performance vs. what is listed as covered curric #bcedchat

    In reply to @MsSallySong
  • brynmw Jun 11 @ 10:20 PM EDT
    I agree, but it really depends on how the conversations with parents have gone over the year. (PAC, newsletters, convo) #bcedchat 1/2
    In reply to @MsVictoriaOlson, @CraigMah, @RosePillay1
  • raspberryberet3 Jun 11 @ 10:21 PM EDT
    Yes! Same with reading and speaking- I also had Ss draw map of world at start of year & then end of year- much much better lol #bcedchat

  • dramaqueen4 Jun 11 @ 10:24 PM EDT
    A3 #bcedchat I'm going to create selfassessments that either give Ss choices to reflect on OR maintain choices as we go thru curr (on board)

    Q7: How did parents respond to how you communicated student learning this year? What do you think is on their wishlist? #bcedchat
  • MsVanBalkom Jun 11 @ 10:51 PM EDT

    Yup, have to move away. Comes back to our reporting also. How do we report subjects separately when rlly its all interconnected.. #bcedchat

    It would be so neat to have parent input into reporting process. A "what we're seeing @ home" piece. #bcedchat

    We are moving away from labs, but it's a struggle. Starting with replacing desktops to laptops. Then moving to remove lab. #bcedchat

    It'd be neat to report on units instead. And check off which "subjects" we touched on in each unit. #bcedchat

    While I like @FreshGrade also think a simplified 1-2 pg summary is important to clearly state if a std is meeting or not #bcedchat

    will try to work out kinks next year with it but may also go to having parents come to student led conferences throughout the year #bcedchat

    I am not for losing any classtime personally. Time crunch enough on Ts. Perhaps extending day + pay is a good response? #dreaming #bcedchat
