Assessment in Catechesis, Part 3

by Joe on January 8, 2007

Informal assessment asks the question: What can you do with what you know and how do you do it? 

  • Ongoing – Include opportunities to assess your participants’ grasp of concepts by observing their participation in discussions, group work, prayer/reflection, and service to others 

  • Specific Tasks – Include specific opportunities to evaluate verbal (oral and written) and non-verbal (drawn, crafted, etc) expressions and responses. These need not be quizzes or tests but may simply be activities that invite your participants to express (in a variety of forms) their understanding or application of various concepts.
