*Next describe your current understanding of assessment by identifying different kinds or elements of assessment that you know about. | |||
*Lastly record the assessment measures that you have used in your classroom to assess the student's progress e.g. do you give them a test/ask them questions and record how they have answered/give them homework and assess how well they have done it etc? Please take care that you mention only the measures that you '''have used''' yourself and not the measures that you know of but have not tried. | |||

As well as adding assessment methods (e.g. Traffic Lights) you can also add any new learning on assessment that the workshop sessions have highlighted. | |||

These could be divided up amongst the group, so one point each or one between two depending on the group size.

After allowing participants a few minutes to understand their point, ask them in turn to stand up and explain it to the rest of the group. By the end of this activity the participants will have verbally presented the content in a way that should make the material easily accessible and easier to remember. | ||
