Progress Tracking in Numeracy Development

About This Course

Oftentimes, teachers place a great deal of effort in creating good lessons that engage the children, enhance their experience and maximise their learning. Yet, the area of progress tracking is often neglected or lacks effectiveness. In Dufour four critical questions, teachers need question themselves and be clear of what is that to be taught, and how do they know if the learners have learnt it. There is no point having to conduct a good lesson without knowing its impact and effectiveness.

In this workshop, participants will understand the theories and rationale behind pupil's progress tracking, and see how it is connected to learning. Participants will learn the different modes of progress tracking and strategies, to be applied to assess children's learning in specific area of focus, both content and skill, to further effectively carry out their role as a teacher and assessor in the classroom. Participants will also study the complete process of progress tracking, in different stages, from planning to implementing, analysing and reporting, and subsequently impacting the formulation of follow up plans and improving the teaching and learning processes. Participants will be designing learning progress tracking tools and methods to be implemented in their classrooms, of which they will reflect and share their practical experiences during the session.
