Monitoring student progress does not always refer to an end of the unit test. More often, educators are accessing this information after lessons and activities to assess student learning, application, and retention of the content. This information also guides future learning. The authors of our required text, Cohen and Spenciner (2009) state, “good teaching always begins with an understanding of what the student already knows and can do,” (p. 125). Conducting frequent assessment helps teachers to adjust instruction in order to target the learning objectives and long-range (IEP) goals.This webpage (Links to an external site.)offers a series of short video vignettes designed to offer easy to implement informal assessment strategies.  Choose one of the following to review:Infinitely Reusable Folders for Practice and AssessmentText What You Learned: Using Technology to AssessCommunicate Learning With Silent SignalsMy Favorite No: Learning From MistakesPatterns Folders: A Literary Analysis ToolClipboards: A Tool for Informal AssessmentThe Stoplight Method: An End-of Lesson AssessmentInitial Post: After reviewing the Week One Instructor Guidance, Chapter 5 of your required textbook, and one of theshort videos of your choice(Links to an external site.), post a substantive initial response fully addressing each of the following:In no more than two paragraphs, explain the role of assessment in monitoring student progress using evidence from at least two scholarly sources to support your explanation.Consider the Week One “Instructor Guidance” page elaboration about assessment and monitoring student progress, the assessment methods described in Chapter 5 in the course textbook, and the conversation among peers and the instructor thus far about contemporary practices for measuring and evaluating student progress in the “Post Your Introduction” discussion.
