"We learn by doing, if we reflect on what we have done." John Dewey
Put Simply:
How am I doing?
How do I know?
Can I transfer this to other situations?
What do I have to do in order to...?
Some Quotations to Consider:
"Knowing is a process not a product."
"You think too much, that is your trouble, clever people and grocers they weigh everything . . . In work you are my man, but in things like playing and singing. I am my own." (Zorba the Greek, Nikos Kazantzakis)
“…as long as pupils compare themselves with others, those with high attainment are too little challenged and those with low attainment are demotivated.” (Testing: friend or foe? Paul Black)
"The desire to know is far more important than achievement and/or performance measures." (Caine & Caine)
Etymologically, 'assessment' comes from the Latin, through the French, and means 'to sit down beside.'
“Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten.” (B.F. Skinner, The New Scientist, May 21, 1964)
