Making Learning Visible: Using Student Portfolios

Hurricane Elementary School implemented a system for making Student Learning Objectives (SLO) visible to students and parents. Each student keeps a portfolio where they track progress toward grade-level SLO’s, uses the portfolio to self-report progress toward mastery of each SLO, and makes goals for improvement. SLO’s are reviewed annually and modified as needed. In this session, administrators and teachers will learn how to implement student-tracked SLO's and other methods for tracking student learning. We will present ideas for administrators and teachers to roll-out a similar program school-wide to help improve and track Tier I instruction and plan for needed Tier II and III.

  • Within the session administrators will learn how to have their staff look at their grade-level or subject Core Standards, and find the essential skills and knowledge from that Core to focus Tier I, II, and III instruction.
  • In the session administrators will learn how to deal with staff push-back or complaints about "just another thing" to add to their busy days.
  • Administrators and teachers will learn ideas for digitally tracking student progress on student learning objectives and the learning targets that lead up to these student learning objectives.
