Prescriptive Teaching 101 January 2014

Criterion Referenced: usually are made to determine whether a student has learned the material taught in a specific grade or course. Ways to score:

checklists rating scales grades rubrics percent accurate

Assessments for Academic Prescriptive Teaching:

Initial assessment - Also referred to as pre-assessment or diagnostic assessment, initial assessments are conducted prior to instruction or intervention to establish a baseline from which individual student growth can be measured.

Formative assessment - Formative assessment is generally carried out throughout a course or project. Formative assessment, also referred to as "educative assessment," is used to aid learning. In an educational setting, formative assessment might be a teacher (or peer) or the learner, providing feedback on a student's work and would not necessarily be used for grading purposes. Formative assessments can take the form of diagnostic, standardized tests.

Summative assessment - Summative assessment is generally carried out at the end of a course or project. In an educational setting, summative assessments are typically used to assign students a course grade. Summative assessments are evaluative.

Norm Referenced: are designed to sort and rank students "on the curve," based on comparing students performance with other students in a particular domain. Scoring:

Statistical methods Raw scores Standard scores

Examples: IQ tests, WJIII, CTOPP, Batelle

Formal assessments: Student is compared against norms.

Informal assessments: Student is compared against his or her own progress over time.

Developmental Stages: Student is compared against typical development.

Examples of Assessments

Concept Map – have students take terms and develop/create a relationship between them Data, teaching, tiers, students, academics, behavior,

attendance, history of student,

EPR (Every Pupil Response) – have students move to a location to demonstrate their understanding of assessments

Student work sample – what can you learn from this sample?

Scores from IQ test – what does this tell us?

Assessments for BEHAVIOR Prescriptive Teaching

Student Risk Screening Scale (SRSS)Directions: Please rate each student on each behavior using the following scale:0=Never, 1=Rarely, 2=Occasionally, 3=Frequently

Aggressive

Behaviors

SIBSSStudent Internalizing Behavior Screening Scale (SIBSS)Directions: Please rate each student on each behavior using the following scale:0=Never, 1=Rarely, 2=Occasionally, 3=Frequently

Student NameNervous or fearful

We don’t teach the next step until the first step is mastered

ASSESSMENT

Student Variables

Academic Profile

What information do we have on the student from standardized assessment? IRI, ISAT, IELA, PSAT, SAT, ACT, etc….

What does the student come to school “with”?SES, Mobility, Health Concerns, etc…

What is the student receiving academically?Are services being provided? What strategies work best for the student? Have interventions been provided?

Math

Anger Management

Attendance

Reading

Sports

Homework

Writing

Friends

Home life

NEXT STEPS:

Work on putting information together on your 3-5 students Create a student profile with data for both

academics and behavior We will add to this profile as we progress

through the course
