Michelangelo -----Original Message----- From: nifl-assessment@nifl.gov [mailto:nifl-assessment@nifl.gov]On Behalf Of Marie Cora Sent: Tuesday, April 06, 2004 10:53 AM To: Multiple recipients of list Subject: [NIFL-ASSESSMENT:460] 400+! Good day everyone! (or afternoon or evening, depending where you are!) I wanted to share with you all that we have 402 people subscribed to this Assessment List. That's no small number! But we've only heard from such a small fraction of folks. (But small is also good! We've had great conversations here, to be sure!) I'm wondering what some of you 402 would like to talk about next? Or continue to discuss? Here are some ideas I have. Please jump in and start up a thread, or suggest your own topic. -What's the difference between norm-referenced and criterion-referenced? Does it matter? If so, why? -Are there practitioner students (student teachers) on the list? What are your concerns about assessment as a new teacher? -Is your state developing curriculum frameworks or content standards or assessment standards? If so, what is your state doing? How is the state developing this material? Who's involved? -Do you think we in ABE have anything to learn from the K12 experience in the area of assessment? If so, what might that be? -Would you like to see guest moderators on the list? If so, what topics? Suggestions: more on the NRS; what exactly is a standardized assessment? more on PBA (performance-based assessment) and rubrics; student self-assessment. Thanks and looking forward to your thoughts and questions. marie cora NIFL Assessment List Moderator _________________________________________________________________ Check out MSN PC Safety & Security to help ensure your PC is protected and safe. http://specials.msn.com/msn/security.asp
