Part 1: The curriculum as a progression model
Common approaches to assessment include the labelling (emerging, expected, exceeding) of attainment or its quantification (3 points of progress). This quantitative approach to assessment has very little value beyond national evaluations. Chris will present the case for and demonstrate how schools can create a qualitative progression model. He will also show how such a model gives schools genuine evidence of student progress. Learn about:
a) How to clearly define learning and progress
b) Threshold concepts
c) Broad curriculum goals
d) Unpacking curriculum goals with specific knowledge
e) How to create Portrayal of Progress (POP) Tasks
f) The difference between curriculum goals and the route to them.
Gap Task: Create POP Tasks
