4.1 Learning Resources

Goals For This Week

• To define mastery-based assessment
• To plan for mastery-based grading implementation

The Process of Mastery

As you develop policies and procedures, consider:

• Efficiency: How can you see, quickly, that student work shows understanding?
• Avoiding Bottlenecks: What will students do while they wait for your help?
• Grading: What do you actually need to grade, and how will you do it?
  • Must-Do’s 80%, Should-Do’s 90%, Aspire-to-Do’s 100%
  • Must-Do’s 100%, Should-Do’s/Aspire-to-Do’s extra credit

Other Useful Resources

• “Teaching Revision in a Blended Learning Environment”  (Edutopia)
• “Building a Culture of Revision, Reassessment and Reflection in Pursuit of Mastery” (NGLC)
