The teacher understands and uses multiple methods of assessment to engage
learners in their own growth, to monitor learner progress, and to guide the teachers and learners decision making. Name of Artifact: Assessments Forms Date: December 2013 Course: EDUC 250: Educational Psychology Brief Description: For this assignment I discussed formative and summative assessments, identifying their differences and giving specific examples of each type of assessment. Each example I gave is a direct idea of how I may assess my future students in the classroom. Rationale: To document my understanding of InTASC Standards #6, Assessments, I have selected to include my assignment over assessment forms, because it is very good at describing exactly what each assessment type is, and how they can be used in different school settings. I also included in this assignment specific ways that a teacher can monitor her students growth and development.
