One of the major problems in
[education assessment] is the constant conflation of assessment OF learning with assessment FOR learning. Included: The difference between the two assessments and what the future holds.
ANALYSIS/REFLECTION:
In this article written by Joe Siedlecki, the three forms
of assessment are expressed as well as future implications. From reading this article it became apparent to me how easily people can confuse assessment OF learning with assessment FOR learning. When first referring to these two types of learning it is difficult to distinguish which assessment to use for particular outcomes. I know for myself, when I began creating lesson plans in Teachers College I had to conduct thorough research to help clarify which assessment was most appropriate for the lesson outcome I wanted to reach. In addition to assessment OF learning and assessment FOR learning, author Joe highlighted the need for more attention to be paid to assessment AS learning as this form of assessment allows for student ownership, independent learning, and self-reflection; all key indicators that promote student learning and performance. From the various courses taken at Teachers College I am able to express the importance of using assessments in the classroom and the benefits that reflect the students, teacher, and classroom, however, I feel that it would have been more valuable if this article included a section that highlighted the importance of understanding the three forms of assessments, how each assessment can be integrated into the classroom, and activities/instructional methods that teachers can use for each assessment. Now, I understand that individuals who attend Teachers College (OCTs) have background knowledge of the three types of assessment, but as this article is available to the public, what about everyone else? As there are several other members within the educational field, obtaining such information would allow them to refer to that information and included it into their classroom to assess student learning and their own teaching practices. Nevertheless, it is not about distinguishing which assessment to use in the classroom, but about how to integrate EACH assessment to best aid students and teachers learning and performance!
