ELM 530 Topic 2:
Discussion Question 1
As a teacher, how would you use
standards in terms of creating a rubric? How does this help in analyzing an
assessment?
ELM 530 Topic 2: Discussion Question 2
Author Rick Wormeli describes a “working
definition of mastery” in the following way:
Students have mastered content when they
demonstrate a thorough understanding as evidenced by doing something
substantive with the content beyond merely echoing
it. Anyone can repeat information; it’s the masterful student who can break
content into its component pieces, explain it and alternative perspectives
regarding it cogently to others, and use it purposefully in new situations.
How can assessment planning help
teachers guide students toward mastery in the way Wormeli describes?
ELM 530 Week 2 Assignment
Deconstructing Assessment Items
Details:
Review “Sample Arizona AIMS Exam
Questions.” This contains seven assessment items for
fourth-graders from the standardized Arizona AIMS exam. Complete this
assignment in three parts:
1. Complete
a “Table of Specifications” using the table format provided. Begin by analyzing
each of the seven assessment items. For each item, create a learning objective aligned to what the assessment item is
measuring. Write these learning objectives in the first column under “Learning
Objectives.” Then, for each assessment item, classify the item, indicating its
type (e.g., multiple choice, essay) under the level
of knowledge/skill the student is being asked to display in the item.
2. Review
each assessment item for cultural bias (e.g., ethnic, gender, or socioeconomic
bias). Write a short description of your review beneath your Table of
Specifications.
3. Lastly, create new assessment items for each of the original
seven assessment items using a different Depth of Knowledge (DOK) Level than
what was originally required. Be sure your new assessment item aligns to the
learning objective you wrote, or, if you prefer,
re-write the learning objective slightly to more accurately reflect your new
assessment. Include the learning objectives, the new assessment items, and
their Depth of Knowledge (DOK) Level classification beneath the statement of
bias.
APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
You are not required to submit this
assignment to Turnitin.
