Measuring Student Outcomes: A Layered Approach

Students are solving problems and analyzing information. They are working in small groups, talking together, and moving around. The instructor interacts and guides but does not lecture. In fact, no one has lectured to these students in weeks. It looks a little messy.

Some might call it chaotic. But it isn’t out of control. It is simply flipped—and it’s supposed to be that way. Flipped classes are the talk of campuses right now because they can be very effective learning environments. But with all that chaos, how can you tell that its working?

That is where assessments come in. Instructors using flipped lessons must be careful to plan and structure the environment to support student learning. It is critical to integrate and relate the learning outcomes, activities, and assessment strategies to ensure that pre-class work supports the in-class work.

One way to do that is to create an assessment plan layer by layer to ensure that day-to-day activities align with the overall goals of the course. By putting the most important layers first, instructors can ensure that they are assessing what matters most.

Flipped classrooms can be powerful, student-centered learning environments, so learn the cutting-edge assessment strategies that will enable you to find out just how well your flipped classroom is working.

If you’re already flipping your courses or just starting to think about it, you have to consider how to assess student learning. Since flipping lessons results in different classroom activities, it takes different assessment approaches to measure the efficacy of these new instructional approaches. Learn how to effectively measure flipped learning in Assessment Strategies for the Flipped Classroom.
