Today, I realized why proper assessment technique is absolutely necessary when trying to see if your students have mastered a topic or not. I gave three different classes quizzes today. One class did really really well, one class averaged, and one did really really poorly. They were different levels with different quizzes, but because of the varying scores I feel the need to find out if it was just an easy assessment, they actually understand the material, or the complete opposite. I'm very thankful that I know these techniques because it makes my job easier!
