Progress Monitoring For Improving Instruction

In order to assess pupil’s achievements the teacher will take the main lead in doing so and the learning support practitioner will take guidance from the teacher’s assessments in order to support the pupil’s progress. In order to have a clear vision of the students ability and how they are progressing, the class teacher will monitor and assess students achievements, conduct reports of the achievements found for the department; other staff including year learning co-ordinators; and for the parents, they will also have meetings to share examples of pupil’s progress and discuss why they

Assessments are used to track not only learner but tutor progress. Below I have documented some utilised in my everyday teaching life:

Initially in this assignment, I intend to describe and evaluate two different assessment methods, which I use to assess the progress of my learners.

I will walk around the classroom taking notes about each students’ progress, while they work independently and during guided practice. On students desk there will also be colored cards to explain where each student believes they are. A green card will explain that the student understands it, a yellow card means they understand some of it, and red means they do not understand how to complete the work. Data will be kept on a chart with every students’ name. This assessment will show me where additional accommodations may need to be made; therefore, meeting the needs of students with exceptionalities. If I notice a student not being able to understand how to solve the problems, accommodations can be set to help students understand what they are working

The major emphasis in education for the 21st century is on data driven accountability measured by student performance on standardized testing. National and state expectations require students to demonstrate mastery of curriculum objectives. Instructional objectives are the focus of the building principals to show measurable student progress. The improvements are evaluated based on data and monitoring of the curriculum.

Tracking learner progress of all levels and of individual assessor caseloads can highlight any issues with achievement and target dates.

The progress file aims to build on the good practise from the National Record of Achievement. Progress file is a set of materials which are designed to help young people and adults make the most of themselves and their opportunities. It is a useful way of identifying learning and supporting requirements during the initial assessment process.

Progress monitoring student’s achievements and progress throughout the year is very important and these two tools are great to use for reading progress monitoring in the younger grades. This activity has taught me how to best use each assessment to better my teaching as a classroom

Each student is monitor as they are learning through research-based information to become effective in their academic. If the student is struggling in their academics, their formative and summative assessment would provide the data to move the student to Tier

Stated in the school improvement plan at the end of every section is a list of assessments for monitoring student progress and evaluating the effectiveness of

There are many reasons why students are assessed and this first section summarises some of the key benefits to students, institutions and teachers as suggested by Race et al (2005). In order to gain qualifications or complete a course, students will be required to prove their competence, knowledge or exposition of a skill, usually through the use of assessments to demonstrate that learning has taken place. Students may find assessment useful as it provides information regarding their progress, or identify areas for further development. Comparisons can be made against other students and this can help to

This artifact impacted my professional knowledge and practice by allowing me to see what progress my students’ are making and to adjust my lessons accordingly. This data also helps me determine where my students are at and what their next set of goals should be. If I did not use this type of progress monitoring, I would not be able to accurately report

Goal 1: To Use data to differentiate instructions and as an indicator of students growth.

I need to monitor and assess the progress of each student by maintaining accurate record using a variety of assessment tools, gaining feedback, formative informative,formal and informal whilst also maintaining my organisations requirements.

One assessment I can use is Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM). CBM was first developed to document a student’s progress through the class curriculum and to assist teachers in creating a more effective instructional environment for their student’s source. CBM has two distinguishing features; first, CBM has a standardized set of procedures, and second, is its focus on a long-term curricular (Mastropieri and Scruggs 2014). CBM differs from other continuous measurements because students’ progress is assessed directly through changing objectives and standards throughout the length of the school year. The test domain remain constant from the beginning until the end (Mastropieri et al., 2014).
