later that I understand much less than
some other students who cared less
about getting good grades.”

need to transport 1, 128 students if
each bus hold 36 students?”

inadequate for their purposes. HS graduates show deficiencies in their ability to
communicate, to think logically and to solve problems.

As an instructional leader, where do you want to bring your

20. Something to think about…
How do standards look like in classroom instruction?
How are they made concrete in classroom instruction?
21. What are standards?
Standards are
established norms or
benchmarks for learning
that define what
students need to know,
understand and do.
22. What is a standard-based classroom instruction?
• Achieve the standard by using the content as the vehicle.
• Makes big ideas and enduring understanding act as an
umbrella for the content.
• Embeds assessment of the attainment of the standards of
instructional strategies.
• Implements standards that are observable and measurable.
• Emphasizes on what students will be able to know,
understand and do.
• Ensures alignments of instructional plan, assessment and
instructional plan, assessment and instruction with the
standards.
• Focuses on helping students meet the standards.
• Uses student-centered approach.
24. What is standards-based assessment?
An approach that compares students’
performances to the standards, rather
than comparing them with other
students.
The measurement of students’ learning performance according to
predetermined educational content and performance standards.
(Sana Rafiq 2008)
The standards define the skills and knowledge
content which will need to be mastered by
each student in a certain time frame.
Assessment is aligned to the attainment of the
students through the defined skills or
competencies.
25. What is standards-based classroom
instruction?
In a standards-based classroom, learning
outcomes aligned to content standards are held
constant, and all students are expected to attain
proficiency in them. Flexibility is provided in the
time and support each student’s needs to meet
the standard. Teacher follows a cycle of
instruction – assessment, planning, instruction,
assessment, and re-teaching – so all students
meet specific, clearly stated and understood,
high academic standards in each content area.

These concerns coupled with the many day to day activities . Being on the fast tracks of deadlines and workloads, it is very easy for a school administrator to get hung up so much on the day to day tasks and then drift further from taking care of the school teachers and personnel’s needs and demands.
