We are pleased to share a recent webinar led by Daniel Schermele with several FabLearn Fellows in a conversation about assessment strategies for maker courses. 

The conversation included:

  • Intent of assessment / why do we teach specific content
  • Types of assessments
  • Backwards planning vs. self-determined education
  • Why do we assess? Accountability or just part of an antiquated educational system?
  • What should we be assessing? Standards vs. skills. Knowledge vs. Information
  • How do we assess?
  • Using a product as assessment (when the process is really what’s important)
  • Testing
  • Individual vs. team
