In a small group, on a new page, brainstorm a list of some of the challenges and solutions teachers many encounter when involving students in the assessment process.


 * Students do not know essential questions.
 * Students may not cover all the material required in an assessment.
 * Students may only choose basic level questioning.
 * Students may not address all areas required in an assessment (written, oral, speaking)
 * Students may not choose an assessment that reaches all types of learners (audio, visual, kinesthetic, etc.)

Solution:

Address the essential types of questioning on a board for class discussion. Teacher can provide a lesson on the different types of learning styles and how different questioning can be used for all types of learners. Teacher can provide a list of all the material that must be covered in the assessment.
