Assessment

Reporting of student achievement has a number of purposes for a range of audiences, and it may take a variety of forms. The form of a report must relate to its intended purpose and audience. It is also important to note that values and attitudes are an integral part of learning. Assessment and reporting of them, however, should be distinct from the assessment and reporting of knowledge, understanding and skills.

Keeping records of assessment activities in a methodical way will provide a direct link to reporting. Record-keeping procedures could include:

    anecdotal records
    marks and grades
    running records
    comments and descriptions
    time sampling
    tracking sheets
    checklists
    portfolios
    rating scales
    student profiles.
