Standards-based Assessment

Standards-based Assessment

Assessment in SD57 is standards-based as per the B.C. Ministry of Education’s guidelines.

  • Assessment is how teachers and our education system measure each student's success in those studies.

  • Assessment is part of teaching.

  • Assessment is equity.

  • SD57 Assessments are formative.

Standards-based assessment supports a criterion-referenced approach to evaluation and enables teachers, students, and parents to compare student performance to provincial standards.

Communicating Student Learning for Educators​

Evidence-based Assessment

Quality assessment is evidence based. Quality evidence is gathered over time. Evidence should be triangulated from three different sources: products by the student, observations by the teacher, and conversations “...between student and teacher, between student and student, and between the student and him- or herself.” (Sandra Herbst and Anne Davies)
