This year we are going to be trialing the new e-asTTle writing tool. We are going to be using a recount for this terms writing.
We watched 2 videos introducing the assessment tool and going over the user manual.
The results of e-asTTle can be used to provide feedback highlighting the next steps in learning for each individual student or for groups of students for each element.
Rubric for marking covers a range of elements students use in writing. It is based on the NZ curriculum and the learning progressions.
Annotated exemplars are given to be used in conjunction with the rubric in order to give a clear O.T.J of where the students are working at for each element they are using in writing.
There are 7 elements that need to be marked against. They are ideas, structure and language, organisation, vocabulary, sentence structure, punctuation and spelling.
As this is a one off test it only provides information of what each student was capable of doing at the time of the test. However the video mentioned that the test is 70% accurate highlighting the specific needs and strength each writer has.
