This collection features resources to support the use of readiness assessments.
Any assessment that examines a student's readiness to learn is considered a readiness assessment. These assessments may look at academic readiness (math, reading, writing), skills readiness (21st century skills, learning styles, etc.), or attitudinal (grit, growth mindset) readiness. They may include diagnostic or learning/attitude inventories. The resources in this collection will help you to determine the readiness of your students in a variety of areas including Math, English Language Arts, 21st Century Skills, Growth Mindset, Learning Style, Personality Type, Creativity Style, etc.
Learner Profiles can provide a great deal of information about student readiness. Be sure to visit the Learner Profile Collection (https://resourcebank.ca/curated-collections/35) for more resources and to examine what should be done with Learner Profiles for students. Information can be found in that collection for teaching students to study and learn based on their learner profile. It is essential that once the learner profiles are created that they are revisited regularly with students to help them do their best learning. Learner Profliles can be a tool to develop classroom community, empathy as well as metacogntion for students.
Please note that readiness assessments should be redone at the start of each school year, as our skills, learning styles and personalities can evolve and shift as we develop and have new experiences as both children and adults.
