According to research, how long should a teacher wait after asking a question? - ✔✔-3 seconds or more What does checking for understanding allow a teacher to assess? - ✔✔-it allows the teacher to know if they need to further scaffold instruction, the skills the students have masters, and insight as to why a student is thinking a particular way. What should the teacher explicitly state during direct instruction? - ✔✔-The teacher needs to explicitly state the objective (what is being taught) and the purpose (how and when it will be used.) Which of the following statements best summarizes the characteristics of effective feedback? - ✔✔-In order to give effective feedback, the teacher and student need to understand a clearly defined goal, evidence of the student's present work, and a way to close the gap between the curriculum goals and the current work What does modeling allow students to better understand? - ✔✔-Modeling allows students the opportunity to observe the demonstration of a skill or problem solving strategy by an expert and develop inner dialogue when deconstructing a question or problem. According to Fisher and Frey, what type of "robust" question is provided below?If you could give Romeo and Juliet advice, what would you tell them? - ✔✔-This is an inventive question Which of the following explains why a teacher might ask an elicitation question as opposed to a heuristic question? - ✔✔-An elicitation would allow a teacher to better understand a student's prior knowledge. According to Fisher and Frey, what type of "robust" question is provided below?Can you show me where you found that information? - ✔✔-Clarification question requires extending thinking by asking a student to provide evidence Joey, a tenth grade student, is struggling to pass his English I End of Course exam. Which of the following should Joey's teacher use to determine current level of performance and growth? - ✔✔-Ipsative standards would be best because it will allow the teacher to monitor his prior performance to his current performance. Rather than simply correcting a student that responds incorrectly to a question, which of the following strategy would be best for a teacher to use? - ✔✔-The correct answer is cuing Formative assessment plays a critical role in student learning and achievement. When planning lessons, what should the teacher consider? - ✔✔-The correct answer is that formative assessment is beneficial if the teacher asks well-designed questions, provides wait time, increases the number of opportunities to respond to higher order questions, and gives quality feedback. How does formative assessment differ from summative assessment? - ✔✔-Formative assessments are assessments for learning, while summative assessments are assessments of learning. Which of the following best describes the type of assessment of the State of Texas (STAAR) test? - ✔✔- The STAAR test is both summative (it assesses the student's learning to determine whether or not the student has met the criteria for mastery) and criterion referenced (it compares the student's performance to a specific proficiency level).) What is the primary benefit to asking "robust" questions? - ✔✔-Robust questions help elicit a deeper understanding concepts such as helping the teacher determine what students know, how they use information, and the need students might have for clarification What is the difference between cognitive prompts and metacognitive prompts? - ✔✔-Cognitive prompts trigger academic knowledge, and are based on either background knowledge. Metacognitive prompts are based on student reflection which comes from Heuristic questioning. Evaluate the scenario below: Mrs. Anderson teaches World Geography to a diverse group of ninth grade students. She asked the students to list the seven continents. Geraldo quickly raises his hand (as he always does) and Mrs. Anderson immediately calls on him. After correctly listing the seven continents, Mrs. Anderson continues to the next question. On the next unit assessment, she realizes that 50% of her students are not mastering the basic skills. What advice can you provide to Mrs. Anderson? - ✔✔- Increasing the wait time will allow more time for all students (including ELL and students will processing difficulties) to formulate an answer to the question. By doing so, it will increase the accountability of all students, as the expectation is that all students participate. Additionally, if Mrs. Anderson had asked probing questions, it would allow her to identify the gaps in learning. Creating a less rigorous test is not the solution if the test is aligned with the standards. However, implementing the above "best practices" would help increase student success. Mr. Jackson teaches third grade math. His students are currently struggling with multiplication problems. Which of the following would be the best way to efficiently check for understanding after teaching a lesson? - ✔✔-Solving problems on a personalized white board would allow the teacher to quickly scan the room to determine who answered the problem correctly. Ms. Gonzalez, a sixth grade science teacher, is looking for a way to bring closure to her lesson over weather. Which of the following activities would you suggest for Ms. Gonzalez? - ✔✔-Engaging in a metacognitive activity will allow students to evaluate and reflect on their learning for the unit With regards to testing, which of the following is best defines reliability? - ✔✔-Reliability is the extent to which the results are consistent. Validity is the accuracy of the assessment. What are the three ways in which validity can be measured? - ✔✔-There are three types of validity: content, criterion, construct.
