Assessing the learning process - Assessment, like instruction, needs to be geared toward various learning styles, and teachers can create rubrics for ongoing assessment that keep a formal daily record of what students are learning.
- A comprehension question might be "What is this question asking me?" I’m looking for an explanation that connects altitude or depth to the number line: sea level is zero, above sea level is positive, below sea level is negative, and by rising or sinking you’re adding or subtracting integers.
- A kinesthetic question might ask the student to model the question on a physical number line — stand up and show me what it looks like.
- A visual question might ask the student to draw a picture of what the problem looks like, showing the submarine and its depth below sea level.
- An analytical question would be "What have we established so far? How do you know that underwater is a negative number?"

- Knowledge Question: What do you know from the data or information given?
- Goal Question: What do you want to know? Do you have enough information to determine the answer?
- Comprehension Question: How do you determine the answer or answers?
- Analysis Question: How did you predict each runner’s time for the mini-marathon? How accurate do you think these predictions are? What might be some factors that would alter the time in which a runner finishes a shorter race?
- Application Question: Compare the men’s and women’s times. What could be a reason for the differences?
- Evaluation Question: Is there another way to represent the information that would be more accurate? Why or why not?
