Highlights from Royal Oak Schools MYP Assessment Policy
In our Middle Years Programme, meaningful assessment of learning answers the questions:
--What do we want to learn?
--How will we know if we've learned?
--What will we do if we haven't learned?
Purposes of assessment:
--Support and encourage learning and progress toward meeting district goals, IB/MYP criteria and certificate, and state of Michigan Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for graduation and college/career readiness.
--Provide feedback to students, parents, and teachers on student progress in learning
--Promote critical and higher-order thinking skills, deep and authentic understanding of content, inquiry into real-world contexts, and positive attitudes toward lifelong learning.
--Reflect international-mindedness
--Support development of the whole student
Methods of Assessment:
ELA9 will use formative (practice), summative (mastery of standards), and common assessments (across all classrooms). Assessments may include, but are not limited to:
--Projects, Presentations, and Performances (both live and/or incorporating digital media)
--Essays, Compositions, Lab Reports
--Portfolios,Process Journals, Writers Notebooks
--Tests, Quizzes, Exams
--Group or Panel Discussions, Online Forums, Socratic Seminars
