Hello there,
Here is a description of the question above:
This Mastery Check gives you an
opportunity to describe what you believe educators should mean when they refer
to “formative assessment.” Ideally, not only will your brief description
of formative assessment be accurate, but you will be able to mentally retain
that description, or a paraphrase of the description. Your personal
familiarity with what formative assessment is/isn’t ought to be should truly
be lifelong understanding. Imagine
that you are a teacher taking part in the winter “Back-to-School
Night” your school sponsors for parents every fall, winter, and spring.
Your principal has asked you to serve as one of 15 faculty members who will
supply 20-minute explanations of some features of the school’s program.
Because all the teachers have agreed to employ formative assessment this year
and because you are a strong proponent of classroom formative assessment, you
enthusiastically accepted your principal’s invitation to talk with the parents
about formative assessment. You decide to hand out a brief written
description of “The Essence of Formative Assessment” when parents
enter your room. The written explanation of formative assessment to be read by
parents immediately will allow you to spend the bulk of the 20-minute period
responding to the questions that parents raise. For
this task, write that description. Provide a concise explanation of formative
assessment in the way your school’s teachers are attempting to install that
process. Do so in less than 400 words, and remember that these parents will
usually be interested in how what you are talking about will have an impact on
their children.
*******in order to answer this question, read the section in the attachment which has information about formative assessment and link the information with your answer please.
thanks
