For the first half of the day I was in my assigned classroom where students were …show more content…

BAS is a form of assessment which is used to identify student reading levels, and their progression. However, BAS is not limited to being specifically used for the purpose of the student. In fact, BAS can be used to measure achievement levels in a variety of ways. Another scenario where BAS would be beneficial would be providing feedback to the teacher where a student who has newly emigrated from another country is on an academic level.Thus, being beneficial to both the student and the educator by providing information that will help determine where the student should be placed, or what gaps must be filled to help the student become successful. For example, this form of assessment can be used on a larger scale for the purpose of identifying where a school stands in comparison to other schools. Finally, in the film study option I witnessed how Assessment for Learning, or summative assessment was applied to student presentations. In this scenario summative assessment was use in performance task. The form of assessment I observed was task specific, meaning students were asked to complete a task that will test a specific skills.

    One way to ensure that I am not inadvertently discriminating against students on the basis of their disability is to make my assessments as valid as possible. A valid assessment will measure only those skills and knowledge that I have set out to measure, i.e. those that are detailed in the learning outcomes and assessment criteria. As such, a student shouldn't be penalised for poor spelling and grammar if the criteria state that the assessment will measure understanding of the subject. Moore A

    Soundation Task Song Name: Rust | Kick It Genre: Semi-electro/acoustic The soundation assessment proved to be a great chance for me to investigate different genres and areas of music creation. Not only did this piece enable me to independently choose different sounds and beats to suit my own wishes and personal preferences when it comes to music, but it opened my eyes to the world of music and electronic music creation. I personally am a fan of EDM, Dubstep and Electronic music and even though this specific program did not allow me to create the bass drop that everyone awaits when listening to such music, the program gave me a chance to find beats that suit each other and work with basslines, synths and acoustics. I have been able to create a semi-electronic piece accompanied by the constant and dominating sound of a strong bass and

    However, she notes that the educator must grapple with all of these concerns and have a “thorough understanding of assessment issues and the means both for understanding school and districtwide assessment practices” (p. 334). Therefore, she lays out criteria to guide assessment, including: (1) assessment should be focused on learning, (2) should be equitable, (3) should be congruent with the aims of curriculum, (4) should recognize the limitations of assessment methods, (5) should reduce competition and increase cooperation in the classroom, (6) should include participation by students, and should include consistent and meaningful reporting (Ruddell, 2008, 334-336). Additionally, Ruddell (2008) lays out assessment tools for educators to employ to evaluate their subject area reading and writing, as this can provide important data about mastery of content knowledge through an understanding of how the student comprehends and utilizes the literacy behaviors specific to the
