We used the BTC rubric idea that I tailored a bit for our needs.
Students recorded their results for each question
For the first two quizzes we took.
A checkmark for a correct answer.
An X for incorrect answers.
An S if it was a silly mistake.
And an N if the question was not attempted.
Students then analyzed the results
To find their strengths and weaknesses.
The areas to work on gave the students a visual of their learning
And what they need to focus on before the retake.
Observation
I was super impressed to see the focus for this activity.
But it didn't exactly surprise me.
This activity was directly related to their personal learning.
And they were taking it seriously!
Analyzing their own data happened naturally.
Students seemed to immediately focus on the X's.
Trying to figure out what they did wrong.
Students looked for areas of growth.
Students could see the progression of learning...
where they started and where the learning was going.
For example, a student noticed that they missed all the numeric expressions on the integer quiz,
But by the time we got to the Algebraic Representation quiz,
They realized they had gotten all those questions correct.
Growth. Had. Occurred.
And they were seeing it!
On their own!!!
Success.
Sharing Data
I also shared with the class the pre- and post-test data.
And again, I was impressed with the conclusions they were making.
Sharing data that represents them is so important.
It puts an emphasis on learning.
On THEIR learning
On growth.
On THEIR growth.
