Mastering Learning Goals and Formative Assessment: THE MISSING PIECE 📊Want to know more? Fill out the poll below! Educators are excelling at mastering learning goals and utilizing the formative assessment process to guide instruction. These strategies are crucial for student success, yet there's a vital aspect that's often overlooked: the true measure of learning and understanding is the ability to transfer knowledge. Transfer goes beyond rote memorization or isolated skill proficiency. It involves answering key questions: ⭐️What do I know? ⭐️How do I know it? ⭐️Where and how can I use what I know? When students can answer these questions, they demonstrate deep learning and the capacity to apply their knowledge in various contexts. Interim assessments are designed to measure this transfer of knowledge, but it's essential to understand what type of transfer we are assessing. Are we measuring near transfer, where skills are applied in similar contexts, or far transfer, where knowledge is used in different and novel situations? Transfer goals should be a central consideration when creating tasks and eliciting student thinking. By focusing on transfer, we can ensure that our students are not only meeting learning goals but also developing the ability to apply their knowledge creatively and effectively in real-world situations. Let's prioritize transfer goals to foster deeper, more meaningful learning experiences for our students.
