Learning Experience                      Assessment Task                         Scoring Guide

During this exercise, Joe asked the group to think about student learning and how it looks across different school environments and scenarios. 

 

In the top row, we would see a student that was learning in a traditional classroom setting with a traditional curriculum.  That student would be assessed through traditional methods such as a standardized test and scoring would be done in a way that was measurable.

 

Other rows illustrate different types of scenarios with the third row being our goal in this initiative. The student is engaged in an uncommon (non- traditional), highly personalized learning experience, with a performance based assessment.  The way in which the student is scored or graded is a common method applied to all students.  This is what we strive for - moving away from traditional, “one size fits all” learning models and assessments and toward more personalized settings.
