Teachers: A. Select, construct, and use assessment strategies appropriate to the learning outcomes. B. Use a variety of informal and formal strategies to inform choices about student progress and to adjust instruction. C. Use assessment strategies to involve learners in self-assessment activities to help them become aware of their strengths and needs, and to encourage them to set personal goals for learning. D. Evaluate the effect of class activities on individuals and on groups through observation of classroom interaction, questioning, and analysis of student work. E. Maintain useful records of student work and performance and can communicate student progress knowledgably and responsibly. F. Solicit information about students’ experiences, learning, behavior, needs, and progress from parents, other colleagues and students. Program Standards: National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers (NETS-T) IV.ASSESSMENT AND EVALUATION Teachers apply technology to facilitate a variety of effective assessment and evaluation strategies. Teachers: A. apply technology in assessing student learning of subject matter using a variety of assessment techniques. B. use technology resources to collect and analyze data, interpret results, and communicate findings to improve instructional practice and maximize student learning. C. apply multiple methods of evaluation to determine students’ appropriate use of technology resources for learning, communication, and productivity. VI. SOCIAL, ETHICAL, LEGAL, AND HUMAN ISSUES Teachers understand the social, ethical, legal, and human issues surrounding the use of technology in PK–12 schools and apply that understanding in practice. Teachers: B. apply technology resources to enable and empower learners with diverse backgrounds, characteristics, and abilities. Directions to the Student: The technology assessment plan represents a chance for students to describe specifically how they plan to use technology, in its many forms, to support assessment of their teaching and their students’ learning. Specifically, these plans will focus on how technology can be used to assess student learning data for content and technology skills, drawing on published research and learning theories, and apply multiple forms of assessment.

These plans must describe how technology can be used to analyze student performance data, interpret the results to improve instruction, and communicate the findings to maximize student learning. Plans can also describe how technology can be used to support student grading and reporting, improve parental involvement, or for long-term analysis of student progress to demonstrate learning.
