Assessments

The topic that interests me the most is my topic on Assessments. Assessments are time consuming and can often be difficult for teachers considering it is a constant process. Everything we do is based off of the assessments so we can evaluate student progress and manipulate our lessons to meet the students' needs even more. STEM relies on this process heavily to make sure that students are reaching the goals that are set for them as well as setting their own goals. STEM involves monitoring knowledge-based information, but also skills that are needed for the workforce. Assessments will develop and change over time to become more flexible and universal with the digital age. Personally, I feel like the digital age has transformed teaching and learning to involve more resources to advance skills and thought processes. Information will be stored, analyzed, and recorded for student assessments. I will use this topic in my classroom by taking more initiative to utilize multiple forms of assessments to make sure I am meeting the students needs' and learning objectives that I set for my students. I will also manipulate my lessons to make sure that I am excelling at my own expectations. We have so many resources to analyze student progress. By staying up-to-date with teaching resources' this will help me take advantage of assessment tools.
