Creativity
“Imagination is not the same as creativity. Creativity takes the process of imagination to another level. My definition of creativity is “the process of having original ideas that have value.” Imagination can be entirely internal. You could be imaginative all day long without anyone noticing. But you never say that someone was creative if that person never did anything. To be creative you actually have to do something.”

Constructionism
Learning as “building knowledge structures” … happens especially felicitously in a context where the learner is consciously engaged in constructing a public entity

Ofsted on Assessment
The use of assessment was judged to be no better than satisfactory in 53 of the 86 primary schools visited for which this was observed, and 42 of the [74] secondary schools, suggesting that the weaknesses identified previously persisted to a large extent in many schools.
![Page 33: Computing: planning, assessment and resources](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022103110/548e0be3b47959bb398b462d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Ofsted on ICT AssessmentThe headteacher of one school in which ICT was judged to be inadequate commented that there was no incentive to collect information on ICT levels or to monitor outcomes. In other schools some teachers had little understanding of what was required for a pupil to reach a certain level. In several schools no assessment of what pupils had achieved in ICT took place at all. In many schools performance in ICT was only assessed in specific ICT classes. This meant that pupils’ considerable use of ICT in other subjects was not monitored or built into planned development.
![Page 34: Computing: planning, assessment and resources](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022103110/548e0be3b47959bb398b462d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Ofsted on Outstanding Assessment
• Teachers systematically and effectively check pupils’ understanding throughout lessons, anticipating where they may need to intervene and doing so with notable impact on the quality of learning.
• Consistently high quality marking and constructive feedback from teachers ensure that pupils make rapid gains.
![Page 35: Computing: planning, assessment and resources](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022103110/548e0be3b47959bb398b462d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
More from Ofsted• Thorough baselining of pupils’ current level was used, at entry to, or
prior to starting the school
• Pupils were made aware of their current level and what they needed to do to improve
• Opportunities for peer and self-review were embedded in lessons
• There was regular standardisation and moderation between teachers and particularly between schools
• A progress tracking system accessible to staff and pupils and embracing ICT across all subjects was used
• Pupils were given detailed written feedback on their work
• Parents were kept regularly updated on their child’s progress in ICT
![Page 36: Computing: planning, assessment and resources](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022103110/548e0be3b47959bb398b462d/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Becta / NaaceICT Mark Assessment
• The assessment and recording of ICT capability are reliable and consistent. They are informed by the use of ICT in other curriculum areas and by moderation within the school. Statutory requirements for reporting to parents are met.
• Pupils regularly assess their own and other pupils’ ICT capability based on criteria they have identified and developed. This contributes to their understanding of what constitutes good quality and helps them to improve.

Naace assessment panel
Open-ended questioning techniques or "technical interviews" encourage pupils to explain and justify their approaches to solving a problem. Technical interviews/conferences may be between:
• a pupil and teacher
• a pupil and their peer(s)
• a pupil and an expert from outside the class (as mediated and facilitated by the teacher)

Possible questioning/discussion approaches:
• “Compare and contrast”
• What have you done?
• Why have you done it?
• Why have you chosen this way?
• What other way could you have done this?
• How could you improve what you have done?

National Curriculum Review
[Levels] may actually inhibit the overall performance of our system and undermine learning… it actually has a significant effect of exacerbating social differentiation… pupils become more concerned for ‘what level they are’ than for the substance of what they know, can do and understand.
![Page 42: Computing: planning, assessment and resources](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022103110/548e0be3b47959bb398b462d/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Recommendations
The focus of ‘standard attained’ should be … specific elements, rather than a generalised notion of a level… All assessment and other processes should bring people back to the content of the curriculum … instead of focusing on abstracted and arbitrary expressions of the curriculum such as ‘levels’.
![Page 43: Computing: planning, assessment and resources](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022103110/548e0be3b47959bb398b462d/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Assessment
“In order to ensure that every child is expected to master this content, I have ... decided that the current system of levels and level descriptors should be removed and not replaced”
June 2012
“By the end of each key stage, pupils are expected to know, apply and understand the matters, skills and processes specified in the relevant programme of study. “
Feb 2013
![Page 44: Computing: planning, assessment and resources](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022103110/548e0be3b47959bb398b462d/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Assessment
Schools will be able to introduce their own approaches to formative assessment, to support pupil attainment and progression. The assessment framework should be built into the school curriculum, so that schools can check what pupils have learned and whether they are on track to meet expectations at the end of the key stage, and so that they can report regularly to parents.
