Step 2: Planning the Assessment for My Learner Sample

During this step, you plan a assessment for your learner sample.

Factors to Consider When Planning an Assessment

A clearly defined purpose is the first step in designing classroom assessment. To help focus on your assessment purpose:

1. Review your notes from Module 4, Activity 2, Planning My Learner Sample.
   
   
2. Open your learner sample and think about the following questions as you review the sample:
   
   
   • What concepts, skills, and knowledge will be assessed?
   • How will the Curriculum-Framing Questions be assessed?
   • What higher-order thinking skills will be assessed?
   • What 21st Century skills will be assessed?
     
     
3. Record your thoughts using the Planning the Assessment table in Module 5, Activity 2, Step 2: Planning the Assessment for My Learner Sample in your Notebook.
