afPE Free Webinar: ‘Assessment for Learning: Putting it back into practice’

To continue to support our members and the sector during these unprecedented times, the Association for Physical Education is hosting a number of free webinars and podcasts over the coming weeks.

The fifth free webinar in the series is:

Title: Assessment for Learning: Putting it back into practice

Summary: Despite the removal of levels and a focus on developing teacher subject knowledge, much practice still appears to be concerned with converting every bit of progress a learner makes into a number or a grade and purchasing curriculum resources and lesson plans that ignore the important process of the teacher-learner transaction that is assessment for learning.

This session will focus on:

• The key activities that constitute assessment for learning practice;
• which revolve around three key questions: “Where are the learners going?” “Where are they now?” and “How can the notional gap highlighted by the first two questions be closed?”;
• and reference – inclusive practice, mastery learning and progress.

Time & Date: 11am on 6th May 2020.

Duration: 45 minutes.

Delivered By: Andrew Frapwell (afPE’s Lead on Assessment).
