UDL Origami Swan

Success Criteria examples are based on the goal of supporting learner agency:

• I will select strategies and materials that help them me make progress.
• I will monitor the progress I am making as an origami contructor.
• I will communicate about my choices and how my choices helped me make progress as an origami contructor.

Learner-Constructed GOALS: Learners may be given the option to create their OWN goal!

Examples include:

• I will construct a real life model for each step (if paper is available) and display as a multiple means support for classmates.
• I will construct a swan without step-by-step directions and share about my process with my classmates in a short video.
• I will create a modified origami creation and step-by-step directions.

Learners benefit from co-constructing a goal that involves productive struggle to optimize learner agency. Learner constructed goals will reflect the variability in your classrooms.

Other examples include:

• I will watch a swan being constructed.
• I will fold and match angles of paper.
• I will create my own origami object; illustrate/explain the steps involved.

Assessments are designed to measure knowledge, skills, and abilities.

Constructs are the knowledge, skills or abilities being measured by an assessment.

By their nature, however, most assessments include features that are not relevant to the construct being assessed.

Often the methods and materials used in assessments require additional skills and understanding. These are considered to be construct irrelevant. Construct-irrelevant features of assessments may pose barriers for some students, preventing an accurate measurement of the construct.

Minimizing construct-irrelevant factors does not lessen the rigour of an assessment, but instead gives a more accurate picture of what learners are actually learning in terms of the knowledge, skills, and abilities identified in the goals.
