Assessment Descriiption

Pre-assessment of students before developing a unit is crucial because it provides valuable insights into their current knowledge and skills. This initial evaluation allows educators to tailor the unit to meet the diverse needs of the students, ensuring that the content is neither too easy nor too challenging. By understanding where students are academically, educators can set realistic learning goals, differentiate instruction, and plan for effective interventions.

Pre-assessment also helps in tracking student progress over time, as it establishes a baseline against which to measure growth. Ultimately, it leads to a more student-centered approach, promoting engagement and fostering a more effective learning experience.

Collaborate with your Cooperating Teacher/Mentor to design and implement a pre-assessment and then a unit of instruction that aligns with state/national content standards. Include technology integration and demonstrate how you will differentiate your lessons to meet the needs of individual students. Implement your unit and analyze data to determine learning outcomes.

Follow the instructions for STEPS 3-4 located in the STEP Template.
