You may recall that in our school improvement plan based on discussions within the school leadership team (SLT), we've concluded that an important element to knowing whether we're improving our ability to communicate to students our objectives for the unit would be to see if students could reflect on their attainment of the unit objectives. Some of you have built this reflection component into your PPO's. Here you'll find a draft document that you can use based on the discussions that were held in our SLT. The SLT members did not want a cumbersome, wordy, reflection document but rather a simple check system with students providing basic evidence after they've taken the unit assessment.
I can see this being used in a variety of ways. We first discussed this handout as one given to students after they've taken the assessment. It may be useful for students to do an initial reflection prior to the assessment, prior to their ability to go back and perhaps study the areas for which they feel they're weak, and then revisit the reflection after the assessment has been taken.
If you are going to use this handout, please make a copy by clicking on "File" and then "Make a Copy." I've shared the form with you but for easier reference, it can be located here: Reflection Handout. Right now, since this is a document that is in a draft state, please feel free to add your comments.
