KnowledgeBases > The Classroom Assessment KnowledgeBase > Element 5 > Activity 2 > Task 2: Plan Future Assessments Based on Students'; Strengths and Weaknesses

Guideline:

Assessment results will identify student strengths and weaknesses. With this information teachers can plan future assessments focusing on what students know and do not know.  In doing so, the effectiveness of the assessment process can be maximized.

As noted at the Milwaukee Mathematics Partnership website, "This protocol provides a set of guidelines for structuring conversations among teachers about student work. Its goal is to foster a common understanding of student learning expectations  and to provide a collaborative forum for examining student work." The protocol originates from the Milwaukee Mathematics Partnership. Though developed for mathematics, it may be useful for any subject matter.

This Education Testing Service resource offers an overview of classroom assessment and its link to instruction. It also addresses planning assessments, involving students, assessing the assessment, and reviewing the results after the assessment has been conducted.
