Lessons Learned:
Today’s class discussion made me think more about formal and
informal assessments and how I could use them in my class. The formal assessments
of test taking and having students create projects are a valuable way to reach
the children but what about informal assessments? I was taught a strategy by a professor
of simply putting a thumb up to ask a student discretely if they are okay or if
they are understanding a lesson. They can do this discretely and it can be a personal
ting between the professor and student.
The topic for my video I am thinking about presenting is revolving
around the short book Star Girl. The book has themes of individuality, and the awkwardness
of being a child and how it is not revered as children but admired by adults. This
ties into another class so it would be easy to continue from that small project
to something like this.
