Grade Level Category:
7-12
Strategy(ies): Self-Assessment
Objective(s) Being Assessed and/or Purposes for the Assessment:
- To have students self-assess
- To improve study skills
- To use for intervention
Materials Required:
Questionnaire
Description of the Activity:
Attached are two different sets of questions that can be placed at
the end of a test. In my class, to retake a test, I require the students
to do some intervention activity. The questionnaire gives me information
on what additional instruction is needed, information on their study skills
and strategies, and helps me choose an intervention activity. Most of the
information obtained from the questionnaire could be obtained from the
test alone. The questionnaire holds the student accountable for preparing
for the test. Through feedback on the questionnaire, the activity also
reinforces positive study skills.

answer the questionnaire
- Don't accept one or two word answers
