Article(s): Self- and Peer-Assessment Online - 0 views

      I struggle with this concept. How do students know the qualities of effective persuasive writing, for instance?
  • Guided practice with assessment tools

      Perhaps if I spent more time doing this, I would have had more success with student self and peer edits. It's interesting, though, that my daughters felt the same way about peer editing in their HS classes. They always felt they lacked any helpful input. In fact, they felt peers were marking things they completely disagreed with. I just don't know how to make peer editing of upper level writing better.

      This has been my experience over 27 years in education as well.
  • There is strong support in constructivist theories for the peer review which is grounded in student-centered learning where students learn as much from the review process itself as from the final grade on an assignment.
    • cathy84
       
      Again, I am a skeptic with constructivist theory
  • hough at the conclusion of their research they determined that students involved in peer review perform better academically than peers graded only by their instructors
    • cathy84
       
      Well, that is good to know!
  •   Learners have a developed set of communication skills.
    • cathy84
       
      makes sense
  • Use a Rubric

      This was successful for me when grading group projects...especially performance-based projects like one-act play performance.

      Interesting...I have never heard of this group nor heard of this initiative. Education is a complex world

ollie-afe-2019: Building a Better Mousetrap - 1 views

  • a system which some educators see as stultifying and others see as empowering.
    • cathy84
       
      Not sure why it would be stultifying (which I looked up to be sure I knew what that meant). I mean, how much enthusiasm would a student have toward an assignment?
  • gineering programs
  • Closer to home, our own successful Allied Health programs depend on rubrics to both assess and encourage student learning.

  • rubrics can help the student with self-assessment
    • cathy84
       
      This was a big goal of mine as a writing teacher
  • “In short, explicit performance criteria, along with supporting models of work, make it possible for students to use the attributes of exemplary work to monitor their own performance.
    • cathy84
       
      I found the models to be very helpful for my students. My only problem is often students create something very close to the model. It often was a conundrum for me.
  • Is the description of criteria judgemental
    • cathy84
       
      That's a rule I have violated...and I probably knew best practice, but getting so specific in the criteria makes correcting so laborious

      I wonder who "we" are when the authors say "we're betting." I don't think it's the teachers, for we know the limits of testing.
  • cultural insensitivity.
    • cathy84
       
      I think this is a way bigger problem than ,most people realize.

      I think this is a real problem with ISASP
