Slide 5: Opening Discussion
A. How do your currently assess student understanding/mastery? B. Is their much variety? C. How do you integrate technology into your classroom? D. Do you integrate technology with assessment?
Slide 12: Test
Demonstrate your understanding of the following geometry terms:
Line Ray Circle Rectangle Acute angle Point Triangle Congruent Similar Parallel lines Perpendicular lines Intersecting lines
Slide 13: Geometry Activity Stations
• See handout for descriptions of each activity station. Paper and Pencil Art Center Pennies Computer Programs Digital Photography Slide Show
• Break into small groups – Try to spend 5 mins. or less at each station.

Slide 15: Group Reports
With regards to each specific representation: • How might you assess the students’ understanding of the content? • Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of assessing students’ understanding/mastery using this type of activity.
Slide 16: Follow-up Discussion
Discuss using these kinds of activities and projects in the classroom. •Are there any benefits? •Are there any disadvantages? •How realistic would this be in your teaching situation? •How do you think the students would react to being assessed with these kinds of strategies?
Slide 17: Handing It In
Submit one activity from the station that you think best represents your understanding of these geometry terms to be graded. What would you submit?
Slide 18: Another Option
You could complete one of these representations (pennies) for this unit. Then use a different one (digital camera) for the next.
Slide 19: Extension Discussion
Let’s brainstorm some other strategies for allowing students to represent their ideas through multiple modes.
