Context
Students are responsible for reporting their progress within their learning agenda. The teacher will briefly review students’ learning agendas to view progress and can immediately see whether students are struggling or not. After a student makes their way through all of the learning objectives within a standard, they take a mastery quiz. The teacher grades the mastery quiz and, based on student performance, can determine whether the student is self-reporting their progress accurately. Student self-reporting has proven to be quite accurate, thanks in large part to the class culture focusing on growth and improvement.
