ASSESSMENT FOR

MOTIVATING

ACTIVITY

• Go to your lesson/unit plan (one note). For each of the twelve


student academic needs, list two ways in which you met the need of
the students. Be specific, highlight your lesson.

• Then try to list specific ways in which you could alter the teaching
methods in order to meet (at least 6) needs of the students more
effectively.
OBJECTIVES
• Motivate students through assessment using
TARGET model
• Evaluate and redesign authentic assessments,
including portfolios, exhibitions, performances,
informal assessments, journals, and the
development of rubrics.

• A autonomy or authority students are allowed in
working
• R recognition for accomplishments
• G grouping practices

• T time in the classroom
T – TASK FOR
LEARNING

– its importance, interest to the student, usefulness or utility,
and the cost in terms of effort and time to achieve it. 
• Genuine Appreciation
• Expectation
– student’s perception of the difficulty of a task
• Authentic Tasks

AUTONOMY AND
RECOGNITION

“offering students’
choices about
assignments and by
encouraging them
to take initiative
about their own
learning.”
R - RECOGNITION FOR
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
“Students should be recognized for
improving on their own personal best, for
tackling difficult tasks, for persistence, and
for creativity—not just for performing
better than others.” P. 499
Interest, performance, attributions to
effort, and task involvement were higher
after personalized comments.

Expectations

Learning
• What Do I Need to Do to Succeed? Staying
Focused on the Task
• Do I Belong in This Classroom?
PAUSE

• Think back on your report cards and grades over the


years. Did you ever receive a grade that was lower
than you expected? How did you feel about yourself,
the teacher, the subject, and school in general as a
result of the lower grade? What could the teacher
have done to help you understand and profit from the
experience?
WHAT IS AUTHENTIC ASSESSMENT?
GOAL
• “Observing and evaluating the quality of their product, procedure,
or performance.” (Cruickshank, 2011, p. 327)
• Cognitive and Performance Assessment
• Grade: summary from several tasks or situations and using set of
criteria
• Authentic assessment is often more formative in nature and more
condusive to changes in instruction, accuracy of the information
gathered.
• To make it fair and useful -> provide formal observation and
evaluation based upon well-defined criteria
• How: written checklists, rating scales, or rubrics
• Example: Portfolio, Lab Book, Report, Journal.
