The purpose of the ASK process is to allow each student to determine what he/she knows or does not know with regard to the core content being taught. This is accomplished by involving students in their own learning process through weekly monitoring of progress, and identification of individual strengths and weaknesses. Using this timely information, they can affect their own rates of improvement and progress.
How does the ASK Process work?
There are a number of process components:
-Use the ASK 4-step process incorporating PDCA
-Understand and outline Core Content and Program of Studies expectations for each grade
-Engage students in their own learning process in core content subject areas
-Assess student on a weekly basis with both preview and review questions related to core content expectations
-Have students graph results on a weekly basis breaking down the core content strands into sub-strands understanding their strengths and weaknesses
-Identify focus areas using QUEST tools to develop individual plans for improvement as well as classroom results as a whole
-Promote an environment that takes the fear of failure away allowing the student to think, analyze, and evaluate new problems
-Encourage engagement and a sense of individual empowerment
-Facilitate Differentiated Instruction in various ways by targeting knowledge levels in individual students and groupings
