Philosophy of Assessment
-Shelby Mutchie-
- I believe that opportunities for learning can come from effective feedback, quality teacher and student interactions, and a good test.
- I believe that assessment is not just about taking a test. It is part of a ‘whole’ and always serves a purpose.
- I believe that assessment is a partnership between the teacher and student.
- I believe that feedback is a consequence of performance.
- I believe in the use of formative assessment as a way to support a ‘healthy lifestyle’ that lasts.
