Are your students worth more than
their marks?
School is about more than just marks, right? What is success at
school really all about, and how should it be measured?
All secondary students across Australia now have the opportunity
to change the way 'success' is measured at school by taking part in
the Tell
Us survey at
http://www.tellus.org.au/#/are-you-more-than-your-marks.
By taking the survey students can go into the running to win one
of the amazing prizes - from iPods to surfing
lessons, movie packages to art classes.
Why should students do this?
Student voice in the design and development of any curriculum
program is essential in order to ensure that learners are engaged
with their learning. It's no different when it comes to assessment.
If you provide students with the opportunity to input into the
design of the assessment process - they are more likely to engage
in the process in a meaningful way. So encourage your students to
have their say about how schools and students should be
measured!
Tell Us is open from now until
Friday 30 April. The results will be presented to
the Government, giving young people the chance to speak up and
change the way 'success' is measured at school.
