Formative Assessment

Create 3-5 questions that provide opportunities for students to demonstrate their learning in different ways:

1 Exit Slip. Students will be given one minute to describe the term diastolic.

2. Higher Order Questioning: Student will be asked to identify the most significant part of the heart and support their answers.

3. Think :Pair: Share: Students will be placed into small groups where they will answer the question which factors affects the blood flow and will discuss their findings with the whole group.

Explain alignment to content standard selected and learning objective:

The academic standard is CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RI. 3. This standard uses information obtained from text illustrations and words to demonstrate an understanding of the text. The purpose of the training is for students to understand illustrations that explain the meaning of the text. Alignment to content standards typically talks about the students meeting the expected outcome of a certain curriculum. This only takes place when the learning objectives are aligned to the instructions used in the learning process. Generally, the alignment of the learning objectives is based on learning objectives, Assessments and the instructional objectives

Describe potential bias and how it could be minimized:

There are different forms of biasness. An example is when an individual when a student is penalized for individual traits. Some of the factors that leads to biasness in the assessment process include socio-economic status of an individual and religion. This could be minimized by ensuring that the assessment is equitable

Describe how feedback will be provided to students:

Since this is activity is completed virtually, meaningful feedback will be provided within the tab of the word document submitted and or each student will have the opportunity to meet with me individually via a breakout session in zoom. The feedback will be be offered in a proactive manner that is by using a proactive language. In this case as an instructor, I am supposed to use constructive and encouraging language. Another approach is based on team working. As an instructor, I should always make sure that we are working collaboratively to achieve those goals. The instructor should always remain connected to the students. Feedback will also be provided t the students by ensuring that a conducive environment is created. This ensures that these students feel comfortable while sharing information about their performance. The final approach will be looking for a consensus between the learners and the instructor. A consensus is obtained by ensuring that the student and the instructor have a better understanding of the conversation.

Summative Assessment

Create an 8-12 item summative assessment that provides opportunities for students to demonstrate their learning in different ways:

1. What is used to measure improvements in cardiovascular fitness?

2. A Normal resting heart may vary from as low as ___ beats per minute (BPM) to as high as (BPM).

3. What is the formula to calculate the resting heart rate?

4. What is the definition of Target Heart Rate?

5. ______is a measure of how hard your heart is working.

6. Name two locations on your body where you can feel your pulse

7. What effect does regular exercise have on your body?

Once you know your MHR your training zone (THR) is 60% to 80% of your Max (MHR). This is the range where most people should exercise. Lower heart rate zones are recommended for individuals who are beginning exercise programs, have health risks, or are pregnant. As your level improves you will be able to progress toward working t higher heart rates.

For example: 200 (MHR) X 0.60 = 120BPM

For example: 200 (MHR) X 0.80 = 160BPM

Calculate the Target Heart Rate at 60% and 80% intensity if low end of zone is 135 and high end of the zone is 175?

8. _______ (MHR) X 0.60 = _______BPM (low end of zone)

9. _______ (MHR) X 0.80 = _______BPM (High end of zone)

10. When is resting pulse best calculated?

Explain alignment to content standard selected and learning objective:

The academic standard is CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RI.3. This standard use information gained from illustration and words in text that demonstrates understanding of the texts. The learning objective is for the students to be able to understand illustrations that makes sense of the text. Compliance with content standards usually means that students are achieving the results expected from a particular curriculum. This only happens if the learning goals match the instructions used in the learning process. Consensus on learning goals is usually based on learning goals, evaluations, and learning goals.

Describe a potential bias and how it could be minimized:

There are many forms of bias. One example is a student's personal punishment for personal characteristics. Several factors that lead to bias in the evaluation process include a person's socioeconomic status and religion. This can be minimized by ensuring that the evaluation is fair.

Describe how feedback will be provided to students:

Since this is activity is completed virtually, meaningful feedback will be provided within the tab of the word document submitted and or each student will have the opportunity to meet with me individually via a breakout session in zoom.

Remediation Activity and Re-assessment

Describe a remediation activity that would assist a student in meeting the standards. Explain how you would re-assess to check for mastery of content:

The best remediation strategy is based on letting the students work in groups. The groups should be composed of more students that are knowledgeable and the weak students. This will make the learning process easier. After going through team, more focus will be based on the student whereby as the instructor I will evaluate the understanding of the concepts through a summative approach. This will be the reassessment process. The composition of the team will be based on students’ gaps, which have to be met
