Portfolios (Authentic Assessment Toolbox) - 3 views

  • A collection of a student's work specifically selected to tell a particular story about the student
  • do you want the portfolio to showcase the final products or best work of a student?
  • Do you want the portfolio to capture the process of learning and growth?
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • do you want it to highlight or celebrate the progress a student has made?
  • Their portfolios often tell compelling stories of the growth of the students' talents and showcase their skills through a collection of authentic performances.
  • Students are not regularly asked to examine how they succeeded or failed or improved on a task or to set goals for future work; the final product and evaluation of it receives the bulk of the attention in many classrooms. Consequently, students are not developing the metacognitive skills that will enable them to reflect upon and make adjustments in their learning in school and beyond.

    The Summer Challenge Tuesday, July 21, 2009 When I was little, I loved school so much that I would ask my mom to give me homework out of the encyclopedias during the summer. Well in the same tradition, I decided to offer summer homework to the teachers in my division. Totally optional, but there would be a reward in the end--four hours of professional development credit awarded upon the submission of a portfolio containing all eight challenges. To my surprise, several teachers have accepted the challenge. I have even had teachers from other divisions ask for my homework after hearing what the Early Childhood teachers were doing. They are having so much fun! They have proudly shown me some of their projects. Some say they probably won't do the portfolio for credit, but just wanted to complete the challenges to learn something new. I am linking to the project documents here if you would like to take the challenge. Summer is a great time to learn something new!
