Assessment
Effective assessments give students feedback on how well they understand the information and on what they need to improve, while helping teachers to design instruction better. In Udaan, Assessment is done intermittently and through three different ways- Formative, Interim, Summative. Our Formative Assessments are short term testing done through very interactive class discussions; a warm-up, closures, exit or feedback slips; on-the-spot performances; quizzes grand conversations, brainstorming.etc where our learners are in the process of making meaning of new content and of integrating it into what they already know. Our learners get immediate feedback which enables them to change their understanding and performance. Our Interim Assessments are more formal and are done, using tools such as projects scored with a rubric, extended essays, written assignments, and Chapter tests. Our students are given the opportunity to re-demonstrate their understanding once the feedback has been digested and acted upon. Our Summative Assessment is formal and takes place at the end of each term.
