  17. Assessment Assignment (job) Select two summative assessments that you already use in the classroom. • Choose two students whose work you will analyze. The students’ responses will give you an opportunity to discuss your practice. • The assessments you choose can include: Objective (i.e. multiple choice, T/F, fill-in-the-blank, matching), short answer, essay (or combination) tests • Performance assessments/projects • Writing assignments • Include a separate analysis for each student (Analysis I is due on Feb. 22 and Analysis II is due on April 5). Please use initials or a pseudonym for your students. In your appendix, please include a copy of each assessment and your grading rubric with the comments and feedback on each. Address the following questions in your analysis:

  18. Assessment Assignment (no job) • You may work from 472 portfolio and/or 473 Unit Plan. Or you can create two assessments from two units if you choose. • You may use the internet and/or textbooks for support in writing questions and ideas (for projects and writing assignments). All sources must be cited using both parenthetical reference and a Resources page (APA documentation). • The assessments you create can include multiple choice, T/F, fill-in-the-blank, matching, short answer, or essay questions (or a combination). The assessment may also be a project or a writing assignment. Make sure you are careful regarding the length of the test. While there is not a minimum/maximum number of questions (this depends largely on the level and subject area), the test should not take longer than 1 hour for a student to complete, and not under 20 minutes. If it is a project, it should be something students can complete over the course of a couple of weeks. It should not span the length of an entire semester or term.
