Joining bit late....here it goes. A1. Accessibility is a challenge when assessing HW. Home environment is huge factor. #formativechat

I think traditionally it can't, but #edtech is making this possible! #formativechat

In reply to @MrDiMauro

slm12 Dec 5 @ 7:38 PM EST

A1: #formativechat I don't think HW is distinguished from other FA. They all guide a student's learning.

legitkfrauey Dec 5 @ 7:38 PM EST

A1: HW in my class is designed to be extra practice, not anything new. And it is meant to give them success with topic! #formativechat

Rdene915 - Moderator Dec 5 @ 7:39 PM EST

#formativechat @goformative A1 HW guides on a daily basis in instruction, as we go thru class or check over, using #edtech makes fdbk fastr

@goformative #formativechat - true Rich - any ideas about how to make the feedback on HW quicker? At least for Ss?

In reply to @MrDiMauro, @goformative

A1: #formativechat HW is just another type of FA. That's it!

A1- homework is more carefully crafted than the other assessments - don't want to waste time so only stuff that's essential #formativechat

davejwallace Dec 5 @ 7:39 PM EST

#formativechat A1 formative assessment shows that failure is not punitive, part of the process of growing.

tcesarski Dec 5 @ 7:40 PM EST

A1: Homework is different than other formative assessments because home environments drastically vary #formativechat

senoritawood Dec 5 @ 7:40 PM EST

A1 Homework is low stakes in my class...a chance to extend oneself and make mistakes #formativechat

legitkfrauey Dec 5 @ 7:40 PM EST

TOTALLY agree! I always make sure HW is something Ss can do on their own! #formativechat

In reply to @kncaton

A1. HW discussion time and other forms of feedback are built into the schedule. Lucky to have double block! #formativechat

kispypniko Dec 5 @ 7:42 PM EST

A1 IMHO Homework isn't formative and it might create more hindrance than solutions #formativechat

dylanwiliam Feb 4 @ 1:28 PM EST

Setting homework mainly benefits middle-class students, thus widening the achievement gap further: http://t.co/osmuOzAt

legitkfrauey Dec 5 @ 7:43 PM EST

I do that when I remember to as well! The word practice is less intimidating than HW! #formativechat

In reply to @Rdene915, @goformative

slm12 Dec 5 @ 7:43 PM EST

FAs for me are not timed. #formativechat

In reply to @davidwkwan

TheRealBrejniac Dec 5 @ 7:43 PM EST

A2 what exactly does tiering HW mean? #formativechat

Rdene915 - Moderator Dec 5 @ 7:43 PM EST

#formativechat @goformative Yes, and we have to remind the Ss of this, so often they fear failure, but we all fail sometimes

In reply to @davejwallace, @goformative

davidwkwan - Moderator Dec 5 @ 7:43 PM EST

To make light of this, perhaps we can tier the HW based on interest level #formativechat

In reply to @TheRealBrejniac

legitkfrauey Dec 5 @ 7:43 PM EST

I always try to leave FA to class time because HW doesn't always get done! #formativechat

In reply to @tcesarski

In reply to @kdyer13, @goformative

Why do you feel it is not formative? Doesn't it tell you what the Ss know or not? #formativechat

@davidwkwan What exactly is tiering HW? #formativechat

In reply to @davidwkwan

davejwallace Dec 5 @ 7:45 PM EST

A2 #formativechat you can develop your own sort of adaptive practice by creating different levels of questions, analysis is the key.

kncaton Dec 5 @ 7:46 PM EST

A2. Find misconceptions quickly and need for extension. #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Dec 5 @ 7:46 PM EST

My def. is modifying it by such criteria as skill level, vocabulary, interest level to make it "fair" #formativechat

In reply to @TheRealBrejniac

legitkfrauey Dec 5 @ 7:46 PM EST

A2: I think tiering HW helps provide smaller chunks to assess and smaller chunks make it easier to give Fb!#formativechat

"Fair" in the sense that all Ss are being challenged and it's adapted to their progress #formativechat
