Provincial Assessment Policy Informed by: www.edu.gov.mb.ca/k12/assess/wncp/rethinking_assess_mb.pdf www.edu.gov.mb.ca/k12/assess/docs/csl/csl_doc.pdf www.edu.gov.mb.ca/k12/assess/docs/policy_k12/assess_policyk12.pdf Also, report card specific: -Support Document (guidelines and policy) -Business Requirements Document -Parent Brochures (multiple languages)

  17. Timelines • Voluntary implementation 2012-13 school year. • Full implementation 2013-14 school year.

  18. Preparation and Distribution • Preparation - separate report card formats for 1-6, 7 and 8, and 9-12. ( www.edu.gov.mb.ca/k12/assess/report_card.html ) • Delivery and Return - to be decided upon by schools or divisions. • Reporting Frequency - • Grades 1- 8 (and non-semestered high schools) - 3 reporting periods, 2 ‘term’ periods and a final report. • Semestered high schools - 2 reporting periods, 1 mid-term, 1 final per term • Local option for grades 9-12 - may be 4 reporting periods for non-semestered courses in an otherwise semestered school so that reporting periods align.

  19. What do the report cards look like?

  20. Report Card Templates All formats can be downloaded as pdf’s at www.edu.gov.mb.ca/k12/assess/report_card.html • Division/School logo • School Name • Attendance • Grades 1-6, and 7-8 • Grade scales • Student Programming Definitions First Page

  21. First Page (Grades 1-6, 7&8)

  22. Student Programming (Grades 1-8) • - critical to accurate and meaningful reporting • - unless otherwise indicated, the report card provides information about a student’s achievement relative to grade-level curricula. • -One of the following codes is used if the expectations for a student are different from the grade-level curriculum in a subject. • EAL (English as an Additional Language): Achievement is based on expectations that focus on English language learning. • L (Litteratie francaise, Francais Program): Achievement is based on expectations that focus on French language learning. • IEP (Individual Education Plan): Achievement is based on expectations that reflect special learning needs. (Due to, for example, transiency, gaps in learning, or a cognitive disability)

  23. Determining Marks • Manitoba Report Card Support Document: • Partners for Learning, Grades 1 to 12 • http://www.edu.gov.mb.ca/k12/assess/docs/report_card/full_doc.pdf

  24. 1.2 Foundational Principles for Grading • Academic grades are based on curricular learning outcomes, and reported separately from learning behaviours • Grades should reflect a student’s most recent and consistent learning • Greater consideration of evidence collected in the final term shows the cumulative nature of learning • Grades are based on individual student achievement, not group achievement • Evidence of achievement (e.g., documentation system, work samples) is used to help determine a grade for academic learning and some processes might provide evidence for learning behaviours

  32. Codes used in Grades 1-6 and Grades 7 - 8 Codes used in Grades 9 to 12

  33. Codes (cont.) • - In the rare cases when an IN or NA is used, such as those identified below, it must be approved by the principal and a comment should explain its use • -the code ‘NA’ (not applicable) may be used... • when a student’s programming is coded as ‘EAL’, ‘IEP’, or ‘L’ (Francais only) and the student is not addressing certain content as a result of their individual programming. • when certain aspects of a subject have not yet been addressed • -The code ‘IN’, ‘Incomplete’, may be used... • if a student’s level of achievement cannot be assessed (e.g., extended absence or being new to the school with no information from the previous school available)

  34. Assigning Grades • To determine grades, the teacher analyzes the evidence, noting the most recent and consistent learning aligned with the subject area categories, as appropriate, and makes a judgement to summarize the current level of achievement. • Term grades reflect a student’s achievement as demonstrated from the beginning of the course. Greater consideration should be given to learning demonstrated later in the course, as appropriate for the nature of the particular course and teaching approach.

Physical Education/Health Education Grading Example Student: ____Lenny___________ Grade: _____7_____ Report Period: ____Fall 2012___________ Grading Scale 4 = Thorough 3 = Very Good 2 = Basic 1 = Limited ND = Does Not yet Demonstrate G: Growth (formative assessment activity) - Not scored for grade

Physical Education/Health Education Grading Example Student: ____Lenny___________ Grade: _____7_____ Report Period: ____Fall 2012___________ Grading Scale 4 = Thorough 3 = Very Good 2 = Basic 1 = Limited ND = Does Not yet Demonstrate G: Growth (formative assessment activity) - Not scored for grade

  38. 4.5 Learning Behaviours • At Grades 1 to 6, learning behaviours are reported once on the report card, along with a teacher comment. • At Grades 7 to 12, the learning behaviours are reported for each subject. • The reporting of learning behaviours appearing on a report card apply to the current reporting term only.

  42. Teacher Comments • Meaningful comments identify student strengths, pinpoint areas needing improvement, and provide suggestions as to how the student can improve. (strengths, challenges and next steps) • Teachers are encouraged to personalize the comments for each student so that they are specific to the student’s levels of academic achievement and learning behaviour ratings. • Other considerations: • Language: - jargon-free, - respectful and constructive, - brief and concise, - free of superlatives and absolutes such as ‘best’, ‘always’, ‘never’, or vague words such as ‘appears to,’ ‘but’, ‘however’, - is congruent with the grading scale. • Strengths and Learning Goals: - unique to the learner, - specific to the level of achievement relative to the report card and categories, - evidence-based, using evidence from a wide variety of assessment sources.

  43. Teacher Comments • IF a child receives a grade of 1 or ND in any subject category, comments are REQUIRED. • Don’t’s - include summaries of material taught during the term. (This can be communicated in other ways since space is limited)
