TIPS AND TRICKS ON USING
THE SELF AND PEER
EVALUATION TOOL ON
BLACKBOARD.
WHAT WE ARE GOING TO LEARN
TODAY
Self-assessment is more accurately defined as a process
by which students
1) monitor and evaluate the quality of their thinking
and behavior when learning and
2) identify strategies that improve their understanding
and skills.

6th Grade Question
iLeap Practice
During the California Gold Rush of 1849, the
world’s supply of gold more than doubled,
and hundreds of thousands of people
rushed to California to find their
share. Boom-towns popped up to
accommodate the visitors. A boom-town is
a community that receives sudden and
explosive growth and development. San
Francisco had around two-hundred residents
in 1846, and about 36,000 in 1852. The few
merchants in these boom-towns sold goods
for more than ten times what they cost back
East. For example, a single pound of flower
sold for as much as $17. Not everyone who
joined in the California Gold Rush got rich,
but most of the boomtown merchants did.
Why were boomtown
merchants able to sell
their products for so
much money?
How do you know this?
Use evidence from the
passage to support your
answer.
Compare and contrast
“Paul Revere’s Ride” with
“The Star Spangled
Banner.” Provide details
from both texts to
support your answer.
Criteria:
Likeness with detail from
each text.
Difference with detail
from each text.

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. JD- Masters in Instructional Tech from American College of EducationWhen I graduated in my undergraduate in 2005, I could operate my email, I had never heard of facebook, and while I had taken a class in educational technology where we were instructed to created a PPT presentation, I could never dreamed what strides could have been made in educational technology in such a relatively short time spanJR – Talk about use in college vs. instructional use.
  2. JDGive brief history of the schoolStarted at as an agricultural school with 200 students, grades 1-12
  3. JR-
  4. JDJD – INTRODUCE TOOL- create a question, with criteria, schedule a time for the students submit answer, Then schedule self evaluation times to self evaluate, the to peer evaluateFrom the beginning, this amazing tool, helps to transform your classroom to teacher led to a student led classroom.Put in own words.
  5. JR - This chart helps to visualize where instruction needs to go in order for students to be able to take the reigns, so to speak.Level 3 = proficiency, too work toward a 4, we must be able to show that students can work together, and be able to ask higher order , deep thinking questions to each otherThe Self and Peer Evaluation Tool can do this.
  6. This means showing examples of student work, teaching students how to analyze rubricsJD-Statewide guide to assessment, shows various levels of student work – students learned to assess student examples. Once students have submitted the question onto bb, they will self evaluate, then peer evaluate anonymously.MODEL
  7. Location of tool: in content folder, top tabs (Assessments), Self and Peer Assessment, process of building an assessment, go through an assessment that has been built and how to add criteria and monitor progressLink to BB course: https://bb9.apsb.org/webapps/portal/frameset.jsp?tab_tab_group_id=_14_1&url=%2Fwebapps%2Fblackboard%2Fexecute%2Flauncher%3Ftype%3DCourse%26id%3D_10393_1%26url%3D 6th grade versus 8th grade questions – how to start this process , types of questions and rubrics.
  8. Initially – this needs to be a paper and pencil activity. While our goal is to be paperless, we have found that writing is familiar and develops understanding of the taskAdd checklist/ question handout
  9. According to common core curriculum, and PARCC Assessment, it is important students to write across all content levels – not just ELA. It is also imperative for students to read nonfiction with high text complexity, this tool allows every teacher to work toward this goal. If you can pose a question, you can use this tool.
  10. Growth in leap, iLeap scores (comprehension, writing)
  11. Build a peer/self assessment with group—those with BB accts open can work on their own while following steps from presenters
