  1. STUDENT SELF-ASSESSMENT By: Pamela Bare & Michael Robbins

  2. How can we help our students want to learn? How do we encourage our students to operate on “internal control” and take responsibility for their own success?

  3. Defining Student Self-Assessment Students evaluate the quality of their work for the purpose of improving in the future

  4. Student Engagement • Cognitive Relationships • Reflective, deep understanding & mastery • Emotional Relationships • Genuinely valuing what they do • Behavioral Relationships • Actively participating in activities

  5. Three Important Tools to Motivate • Student-involved classroom assessment • Student-involved record keeping • Student-involved communication

  6. Student-Involved Classroom Assessment • Teachers must have a clear vision of what students should achieve • Bring students in, as partners, to the assessment development process • Students will help define the criteria by which their work will be judged • Students will apply those criteria to samples of their own work

  7. Outcomes of Student-Involved Classroom Assessment • Shows students where they are now in relation to where the teacher wants them to be • Helps students understand the meaning of their academic success • Offers classrooms where there are no surprises and no excuses • Builds trust and confidence

  8. Student-Involved Record Keeping • Students play a role in monitoring improvements in their performance • Students build academic portfolios • Students help create rubrics • Students actively engage in self-reflection

  9. Outcomes of Student-Involved Record Keeping • Allows students to watch themselves grow • Builds confidence

  10. Student-Involved Communication • Brings students into the process of sharing information about their success with others • Participation in student-led conferences • Sharing work samples with an audience

  11. Outcomes of Student-Involved Communication • Students build organizational and communication skills • Students build self-confidence • Students learn to be reflective practitioners • Students can take ownership in the assessment process, rather than feeling like a victim of it

  12. As Educators, We Must Learn To . . . • Be clear about the achievement targets we want our students to hit • Develop various kinds of appropriate and high-quality classroom assessments • Foster student involvement in assessment, record-keeping, and communication processes • Effectively communicate about student achievement • Involve students in the process of learning
