Introducing…Creating Credible Criteria Lead Team November 21, 2012
Purpose To improve student learning by • supporting teachers’ work in formative and summative assessment • supporting AISI implementation
Outcomes • Differentiate between two different uses of criteria • Be familiar with the content of AAC’s latest publication: Creating Credible Criteria • Understand the connections between AAC’s 3 publications: • Creating Credible Criteria • Building Better Rubrics • Scaffolding for Student Success
Differentiating the Use of Criteria Complete the Q and A chart to articulate the difference between two different uses of criteria: • using criteria to make a judgement (also articulated as Success Criteria) • using criteria to articulate Programs of Study learner outcomes Handout: Differentiating the Use of Criteria
Criteria: A Working Definition • Read pages 3 and 5. • Underline a statement that either: • Articulates a new learning for you • Confirms something you already know • With elbow partner, read the statement you underlined and say something about it. Handout: Excerpts from p 3, 5 (with hourglass)
Articulating Criteria: Steps for Success 1. Highlight the words that designate the level of cognition in the outcome(s) 2. Create a summary statement that captures the essence of the outcome(s)- this is the criteria. 3. Develop rubric descriptors. 4. Determine instructional support and formative assessment opportunities.
Which is the more effective example? Criteria for an effective example: • Stays true to the stated outcomes • Supports student learning • Satisfies the requirements in each of the 4 steps Handouts: Examples 1 and Example 2
Scaffolding for Student Success- making the connection Step 4. Determine instructional support and formative assessment opportunities. NOTICE: • A formative assessment tool is NOT necessarily in rubric format • Components of the formative assessment tool are “criteria” as used in critical thinking
Concluding Tweet Using #psd70 or an index card, please respond to one of the following: • What is your key learning from today? • How are students demonstrating the effects/power of using criteria in the classroom? • What can administrators do to support the use of criteria in the classroom? http://storify.com/cjensencfl/assessment-as-learning-and-critical-thinking-at-ps#publicize
