  10. Understanding is How facts related to each other

  12. Understanding is Knowledge deployed

  13. We can define knowledge and understanding. How about Assessment?What is your definition of Assessment? How does it compare to this definition…

  14. Assessment is the process of gathering and discussing information from multiple and diverse sources in order to develop a deep understanding of what studentsknow, understand, and can do with their knowledge as a result of their educational experiences; the process culminates when assessment results are used to improve subsequent learning

  15. Did you know?

  16. Do you understand?

  17. There are different aspects to understanding. Understanding is multidimensional and complicated. It makes sense to identify different aspects of understanding.

  18. From an assessment perspective, the six facets offer various indicators of, or windows on understanding. They can guide the selection and design of assessments to elicit understanding.

  20. Explain…………..........Remember • Interpret…………….....Understanding • Apply……….…… ….....Apply • Have Perspective……...Analyze • Empathize……………...Create • Have Self-knowledge….Evaluate Facets of Understanding Bloom’s Taxonomy:

  21. Facets of Understanding 1. Explain • Can students explain what they are doing? • Not just facts, but “Why?” and “How?” • Know why they are right. • See how it relates to other things. • Assessment: • Oral exams • Use of assessment that will evoke misunderstanding • A build tests on essential questions • Assess breadth and depth independently

  22. Facets of Understanding 2. Interpret • Provide stories that give meaning. • Especially answer “Why?” • Interpret a conclusion from data. • Assessment: • Can students put together a sophisticated story? • Assess story underlying a concept

  23. Facets of Understanding 3. Application • Apply to NEW situations. • Students will mimic professional problem solving through real world problems. • Assessment: • Assess whether students can respond to their errors or feedback • Do not just assess the performance, but understanding

  24. Facets of Understanding 4. Perspective • Whose point of view? • Especially looking at it from another’s point of view. • Assessment: • Demonstrate knowledge of importance or unimportance. • Assess knowledge of opposing or alternate views. • Find author’s intent.

  25. 5. Empathy • Feel what someone else feels • Change of heart • Respect for others • Assessment: • Demonstrate being in “someone else’s shoes.” • Empathize with an undesirable. • Teach others (empathize with their ability)

  26. Facets of Understanding 6. Self-knowledge • Self-consciously question our understandings to advance them. • Find blind-spots, prejudices, and oversights in our thinking • Assessment: • Self-assess past and present work. • Do an assessment twice. • Check student’s understanding of how much they know.
