Describe how Literature is being assessed in the school you have been posted to?
Literature assessment (for Sec 2) here in Macpherson secondary is done through formative assessments.
In the first term, students were doing a small play production (only a few scenes due to time constraints) where they had to come up with a script and act out the script. The students were assessed based on their script and how they worked together and acted in their play. This would form a majority of their semester’s assessment.
What follows next in this term will be two in-class poetry tests over the course of the term (one seen, one unseen) where students are expected to complete a set of questions based on the poem. This would also form part of their semester’s assessment. The students here do not have a literature examination for their mid-year examination.
" This would form a majority of their semester’s assessment."- their performance in the play constitutes the majority of their marks? How is it assessed? Group vs individual contribution?
