Rationale
4 of 5
I
didn't pick this rationale because I love it. I picked it because it
is one of those must do\s in my mind. Assessments are a critical part
of education and almost every other part of life. How does a person
know how they're doing? In my career at the moment, pre-assessment has
become normal for me. I go to work and have a ten minute chin wag
with the current instructor to figure out who the students are, where
they are in the current model of their term and what is expected for
the duration of my time with the class. They will provide me with a
quick assessment of the class. During these assessments I take the
information, write down the important issues and go to the class.
When I enter the class, we go over all of the info that I have about
the day, and make it happen. My post assessment will always take
place at the end of the day. I will spend ten to fifteen minutes to
provide post assessment and feedback details regarding the lessons
learned, how to fix the issues that have come up, what is expected
for the next day and I always finish off with the winners of the day.
This is a motivational tool that students can either embrace or not.
It tells me a lot about who is motivated and who really cares about
what they are doing. Without fail the classes that I teach really
enjoy this part of my educational philosophy. I make sure not to
embarrass any of the students, but I do make sure that all of the
students take away valuable teachings, how to improve moving forward,
as well how to avoid making the same mistakes. The feedback either
confirms or it changes what they have learned. Timing the delivery of
individual feedback is crucial to the success of each student.
