LEARNING MODULE 7
Assessing Learning and teaching performance
in Multi grade class
Introduction
Pre- Competency
TOPIC 1
As a multigrade teacher with students of many different ability levels, you must
decide what information to collect on each learner’s progress and how to collect it.
Individual learner assessment is just as important as comparative evaluation across
students. The latter is useful to evaluate one student’s progress against his/her peers,
but too much and too public evaluation around performance can lead to negative
labelling of some students as “clever” and others as “slow”.
Another goal you should have is to develop a positive attitude among students
about teachers and about learning. You can do this by assessing and rewarding other
aspects of your students’ development such as their willingness to assist in doing
classroom tasks, share resources with friends, and organize their own work. These
outcomes deal with attitudes, values and behaviors, but they are not easy to measure
despite their importance.
It is always helpful to reflect on the purpose of assessment and to plan for it at four
different times during the teaching and learning process: before a new topic is introduced,
to determine what experiences or understanding students already have about that topic;
this information will help you decide what new information they need to be taught
• during a lesson, to find out if your students are learning the concepts being taught;
if you note problems for the class as a whole or for individual students you may be
able to solve them during the lesson
• at the end of a topic, to assess mastery prior to progression to the next topic, decide
if further remediation is required for some students, and provide feedback to you
about your own teaching methods
• at the end of a term or the school year, to assess if students have retained their
understanding of the lessons delivered
In a multigrade teaching situation, you will have to use several methods for assessing
learner performance and learning outcomes:
• Individual assessment
select activities that help measure the learning of each student. This may include
collecting basic information through administering a test, checking individual
assignments and projects, using checklists, observing each student’s activities and
reading his/her written work, and keeping anecdotal records of each student’s
development. Keeping a portfolio for each student is an especially rich resource that will
help you assess the progress of your students over time and maintain a more permanent
record of their work.
Group assessment
observe how well each group works as a team who are the leaders, who needs
encouragement to participate, who prevents others from taking part – and the quality of
the group’s results. What did each individual student contribute to the results and how?
Self-assessment
ask your students about their favorite and most difficult subjects. What additional help
do they think they need to do better?
Peer assessment – ask the peer tutors you have selected about the progress each of the
students they are working with is making. Should different peers be assigned to work
with students who are having problems? In addition to measuring specific learning
outcomes such as reading and arithmetic knowledge, you may wish to observe and assess
the following skills and attitudes:
Other sources of feedback on your teaching are also important. This may include
assessment from your head-teacher/principal, your fellow teachers, and even informal
feedback from your students – why not ask them what they like and do not like about the
classroom environment and individual lessons?
