Assessment Plan Rationale
Proficiency scale-based assessment
-
Focus on students better understanding themselves as learners
-
Less focus on “marks” and more focus on progress and growth
-
Ongoing conversation between teacher and student on where the learning is going (formative assessments)
-
The activity, Point and Perform, is the final assessment (summative assessment) based on the criteria the students were given with a rubric at the beginning of the unit.
