Assessment Process and Purpose of Assessment
Survey Monkey In lesson 1, students will answer 6 questions at the beginning of the lecture. This will assess student’s prior knowledge and tell me what they think in regards to being a well-rounded leader, choreography skills, and elements of dance. It will also give me insight to if they have ever choreographed before. Critical Thinking Questions Throughout the lecture in lesson 1, students will be asked to reflect on three aspects of choreography (shown in prezi presentation). These questions will assess if students are understanding key concepts of choreography. Class Blog The “Choreographing Pieces of Art Class Blog” is a critical assessment because it is used throughout the unit. This will allow me to see student’s cognitive progression in every step they make. Students will write about they have learned and their experiences each week. In addition, they will provide feedback and advice to other groups. Quick Write At the end of lesson 2, students will write a quick paragraph on their group’s dance theme and storyline. This will allow them to write out complete thoughts in order to give more clarity. This will be read along with the webercise assignment to ensure students/ groups are on the right path. Anticipation/ Reaction Guide In lesson 3, students will complete this graphic organizer in correspondence to the two resources. It will assess student’s prior knowledge on what has been taught in previous lessons and correct misconceptions if needed. Main Idea Graphic Organizer Students will use this graphic organizer to organize the main idea of chapter 2 in the book, Choreography A Basic Approach to Improvisation: Elements of Dance. A breakdown of this concept is required (4 parts). This assessment will allow me to ensure students are understanding this concept, which is addressed throughout the unit. Performance Each group will perform their completed dance piece to the rest of the class. The dance must include all choreographic elements that were discussed, convey their theme and storyline appropriately, and have performance qualities. Final Blog Post Students will record their final dance piece and post it to the class blog. Peers will assess the final product and provide feedback.
