BEYOND COMPASS – ESTABLISH A STUDENT LEARNING PATHWAY

1. BEYOND COMPASS – ESTABLISH A STUDENT LEARNING PATHWAY • Purpose of this document: • To provide information that is aligned to the ACSF levels (performance indicators) that supports Case Managers and FLO coordinators to negotiate Learning Pathways with FLO students • The Learning Pathway reflects the capabilities of the student as identified through the Compass on-line assessment. • To develop common understandings of the ‘Ability Descriptors’ (abilities). The results of the COMPASS Diagnostic Assessment Tool provided in a downloadable REPORT contains important information to help Case Managers, flexible learning providers and schools to work in partnership to develop appropriate learning plans for students, allowing them to develop the necessary literacy and numeracy skills to actively participate in modern society. Evaluate Compass Ability Descriptors Identify and RECORD current ACSF levels (Australia Core Skills Framework) Identify and develop a discussion related to relevant ‘student learning options’ (pg.2) before moving into selecting the appropriate ‘learning pathways’ (pg. 3) The ‘student learning pathways’ are identified as the most appropriate level of engaging the FLO student according to the COMPASS ability descriptors and the identified ACSF levels in Reading and Maths. Please record the selected , ‘student learning pathway’ on (pg.3) 2011 ICAN Innovative Community Action Networks: Beyond Compass - Establishing Student Learning Pathways

2. STUDENT LEARNING OPTIONS Using the COMPASS report identify the student level outcomes aligned to the ACSF Australian Core Skills Framework. Identify and develop a discussion related to relevant student learning options before moving into selecting the appropriate learning pathway from this page or others that you may find relevant. Check with the COMPASS ability descriptors.
