Video Tutorial: Determine the Lesson Assessment – Step 3

11/16/2010 By Jared Dees

In this third installment of the video training material for The Religion Teacher’s Guide to Lesson Planning, we look at assessment. Assessment is most commonly thought of as tests and quizzes, but it is much more than that. Assessment should be seen as a variety of means to check students’ understanding and mastery of learning goals. Assessment measures student progress towards the lesson objectives.

When selecting assessments and activities it is important to meet various learning styles. Howard Gardner’s classic research on Multiple Intelligences has shown the need to diversify instruction and assessment. I have broken down these multiple intelligences into the following categories of assessment and activities: (L)-Listening (Oral), (R)-Reading, (W)-Writing, (VP)-Visual (Pictures), (VV)-Visual (Video), (Mo)-Movement, (Mu)-Music, (Ir)-Interpersonal, (Ia)-Intrapersonal. Or consider the following comparison.
