LESSON THREE

-Assessing Student Led Activities-

In our final lesson we will begin to build an assessment tool for measuring the success of our students when they lead classroom activities. In this lesson you will begin to refelct on what you currently know about assessing the leader of a classroom activity and than you will slowly begin to develop that idea of what it means to assess a student at the helm of a student led activity.


Learning Outcomes

  • You will develop a way to assess student led activities from scratch by using your own ideas, expanding those ideas in groups, and making a final list created from the input of all the groups.


Activity 1

-Current Knowledge-

Many of you reading this are currently teachers and so you have been through a training process where you were taught how to teach and deliver material to students through lessons and classroom activities. From your own experience write down a list of things you need to do to successful lead a classroom activity.

  • What are the most important aspects of delivering a lesson to students?
  • What is your most important job when you move from delivering material to assessing the students understanding of that material?
  • How do you guage your own success or failure leading a lesson, assignment, or classroom activity?
  • Would you measure a student leading a classroom activity in the same manner?
  • Why or Why not?
  • List the different categories the student would need to excell in to get a good grade

Activity 2

Activity 5

-Class Discussion-

After each group has made a final list in activity 4 of this lesson, of the best way to critique a student leading a classroom activity, one group will lead a class discussion comparing and sharing the final list compiled by each group. The group leading the discussion will compile list of all the groups ideas.
