ASSESSMENT DATA SHOULD PROVIDE FEEDBACK:

Precise, timely & frequent. Useful to the teacher in making instructional decisions. Useful to the learner to improve performance.

Listening with Empathy and Understanding

“Listening before prejudging someone’s contribution makes sense. Being patient helps. I was surprised at the great ideas and how much everyone added.”

Sir Francis Drake High School, San Anselmo, California

JOURNAL ENTRIESMetacognition:“I sometimes have to talk to myself and tell myself to work harder, or to stop slacking.”

“They give us time to think about everything—all of our actions and work and that is something that really helps. Not many kids get that; it’s so neat.”

Sir Francis Drake High School, San Anselmo, California

JOURNAL ENTRIESPersistence:

“In the last project when I couldn’t have been more stressed. I wanted to quit and walk away, but no matter how much I wanted to give up because I had no idea what I was doing or how it was going to be done, no matter how much I wanted to throw the Makita because it wasn’t working, no matter how much responsibility I was forced to take on I stuck with it until the end always knowing (hoping) it would turn out great.”

“ When I was doing this work, I was thinking about how hard the kids at Furr had to work and what they had to overcome in order to succeed. The body is the body of a student and the head represents our mascot, the bull. The uplifted hand stands for persistence.”
