Convening Five Pre-work
~ Evidence of Learning and Feedback ~
Pre-work
In Convening 5, we will take a deeper dive into the Evidence of Learning and Feedback component of the Ohio Personalized Learning Framework.Â
Below you will see the indicators from the Evidence of Learning and Feedback component:
5.1 Mastery learning or competency-based learning is practiced.
5.2 Learners have opportunities to critique and revise their work to demonstrate master of targeted competencies.
5.3 Learners are assessed through a variety of ongoing and adaptable assessment techniques (e.g., performance-based, choice boards, open-ended problem and project-based learning, etc.) to provide data to drive learning experiences. Educators and learners co-analyze this data to inform the next steps in the learning journey.
5.4 Learners receive feedback from the learning community (e.g., teachers, peers, family, business and industry partners, etc.) so they can understand their current progress, recognize that mistakes are opportunities to learn and develop a plan for moving forward.
5.5 Learners regularly self-assess as an embedded part of the learning process. They accurately reflect on and communicate their progress and achievement to relevant stakeholders.
