WLMA/WALE ConferenceFriday, October 15, 2010

Mission: To ensure that students are effective users and producers of ideas and information.

Talk to Your Friends:

What does this mission mean to you?

Three Essential Functions of Teacher-Librarians: 

• Information Literacy and Technology Instruction• Reading Advocacy• Information Services and Management 

Talk to Your Friends:

Talk to Your Friends:

At what level of development is your district’s Information Literacy Curriculum?

Assessment

A process not an event

Formative Assessment• Assessment FOR Learning

– Purpose: Provide ongoing feedback to improve learning

– Timing: During the learning segment

Science Grade Level Expectations

(http://www.opi.mt.gov/pdf/standards/09ScienceELE.pdf)

Grade 1 Grade 4 Grade 8 Grade 12

Content Standard: MT Science Standard 1: Students, through the inquiry process, demonstrate the ability to design, conduct, evaluate, and communicate results and reasonable conclusions of scientific investigations.

B. Write a testable question with teacher guidance E. Identify the purpose of the investigation

A. Ask a testable question using observations and prior knowledge D. List a step-by-step procedure for an investigation

A. Compare testable vs. non-testable questions B. Write a testable question for an investigation E. Distinguish between a testable question and a testable hypothesis F. Write a testable hypothesis for an investigation

A. Identify the various applications of scientific investigations (explore new phenomena, check on previous results, to test how well a hypothesis predicts, and to compare hypotheses) B. Identify a testable question E. Write a testable question

TD Focus: Approach Students highlight question words and punctuation: model for class, group-generated question, pair-generated questions. Students highlight lesson- specific vocabulary

Students use Lab Report form to list possible testable questions and describe investigation procedure. Resource: Problem/Solution Graphic Organizer http://www.sdcoe.k12.ca.us/score/actbank/tprobsol.htm

Information Literacy Performance Criteria:

Novice:•B. Student, struggles to generate appropriate questions with teacher guidance.

Nearing Proficiency: •B. Student generates questions with teacher guidance that may or may not be testable.

Proficient: •B. Student generates a testable question with teacher guidance

Science Performance Criteria:

Talk to Your Friends: 1. Are information and technology literacy standards a

part of quarterly/semester reporting?

2. How could you use standards-based performance rubrics to begin assessing and reporting student learning of information and technology literacy standards?

Checklist:Know the learner standards.

Use your Advisory Team to inform/influence teachers to implement learner standards.

Analyze released items from state tests to target information and technology literacy standards in content areas.

Develop standards-based rubrics to assess student learning.

Develop a standards-based reporting tool to communicate student learning with students and parents/guardians.
