An app idea to facilitate feedback and improve student learningEldon Prince
This is an app idea I came up with to improve student learning.
What is the motivation for this app?
Students, who are the customers of education, have little input. Teachers, who heavily influence student learning, lack the data to improve teaching. Administrators, who can promote change, have little information.
The auris app is designed to facilitate feedback and serve as a powerful tool to empower students, enable teachers, and inform administrators.

Late return of feedback from lecturers was demoralizing students and causing frustration, poor NSS results, and some students considering dropping out. The causes included lecturers' busy schedules, the issue not being raised by course reps, academics not seeing it as a priority, and no monitoring of timescales. Potential solutions included setting targets for admin staff and course reps raising the issue to get academics more supported in meeting deadlines, informing students of any delays, and monitoring progress with university departments. This could lead to higher marks for students as they learn from feedback and improve motivation, retention, and NSS scores.

Associate Professor Tracey Bretag: Contract cheating implications for Teachin...Studiosity.com
The document summarizes key findings from a research project on contract cheating in Australian higher education. The project involved surveys of over 14,000 students and 1,100 staff across 8 universities. It found that contract cheating is a systemic issue influenced by perceptions of higher education as a business. While most outsourcing involves people students know, certain factors like speaking a non-English language at home increase risk. Authentic assessment alone does not prevent cheating, and suspected cases often go unreported due to lack of proof or time. Overall, the problem requires addressing the complex causes rather than simplistic solutions.

The student data driven life... every teacher's dreamNavigatingNerdies
Presented at the South Carolina Middle School Conference on March 1, 2014.
Come take a look at how we use student data to drive (and even detour) our instruction!
The document discusses using formative and summative evaluations to improve a field trip program called Think Science! Pathways. Formative evaluations in 2002 found that few teachers used the Pathways materials due to access issues, length, and complexity. It did increase time spent and engagement at exhibits. In response, materials were shortened and simplified. A 2003 summative evaluation found low Pathways use and no clear cognitive impact yet, but suggested in-class visits before field trips improved learning. Evaluations highlighted the need to better understand teacher and chaperone needs to improve program use and effectiveness.
1. The document discusses the history and evolution of data-driven instruction in education. It traces how educators shifted from relying solely on annual test scores and adherence to methods/materials to using real-time data to modify instruction.
2. Both advantages and disadvantages of data-driven instruction are presented. The advantages include tailoring instruction to student needs, holding schools accountable, and targeting resources. Disadvantages include over-reliance on testing and "teaching to the test."
3. The future of data-driven instruction is depicted as widespread use of interim assessments to monitor student and teacher progress and target interventions in a timely manner. Administrators will also use data to evaluate programs and resource allocation.
This document discusses the implementation of a data-driven school (DDS) system in the United States to address problems with existing school systems. It describes how a school district collected student data, had stakeholders analyze the data to develop goals, aligned programs and designed interventions based on gaps identified. The district was then able to monitor student performance, attendance and provide tailored classroom instruction. The system helped the district nearly close achievement gaps between white and minority students. Implementing a similar DDS system could help address issues in Bangladeshi schools like scheduling and university selection.
The effects of offering choice between two homework version adjp7676
This document summarizes an action research project that examined whether offering students a choice between two homework options would increase homework completion rates. The researcher found that while students reported enjoying having a choice, quantitative data analysis showed no significant increase in homework completion. Most students reported forgetting or finding homework too difficult as obstacles to completing it, rather than a lack of motivation. Offering a choice may only affect the minority of students who find homework boring.
Strategy Sessions: Improving student engagement through active participationLearningandTeaching
Units such as counselling skills, clinical psychology or social work, are able to engage students due to the clear, practical implications for future careers. In contrast, it is often difficult to engage students in theoretically driven or statistically based units. However, increased student engagement and active learning can be promoted when more opportunities for participation and discussion are provided.
In this presentation, Nicholas Harris shares strategies for better engaging students, whether they are studying online or on campus, or studying theoretical units. Strategies include weekly reflection quizzes, increased interactive activities during tutorials and lectures, and incorporating online consultation times, serve to increase opportunities for students to ask questions and have hands-on practice with the learning materials.
The document discusses assessment-driven instruction for reading programs in grades K-3. It defines assessment-driven instruction as using data from valid reading assessments that measure six components of reading. Teachers use several types of assessments, including screening, progress monitoring, diagnostic, and outcome assessments. The data from these assessments helps teachers identify students' reading levels, group students for effective instruction, target skills to reteach, and monitor student progress. The Lead Literacy Teacher's role includes scheduling assessments three times per year and implementing interventions for students at risk.
The self assessment modules are designed to help students test their understanding of course readings for each week. They consist of 3 multiple choice questions per topic, with feedback provided. If a question is answered incorrectly, students are directed to re-read that section. The modules include images, audio, video and other media to engage students. Student usage of the modules will be analyzed and a survey conducted to help improve them.
The document discusses the Warren Township School District's implementation of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics using the Go Math curriculum program.

This document summarizes an experiment using the PeerWise online tool to implement Contributing Student Pedagogy in two Introduction to Object Oriented Programming courses. Students were asked to create and answer multiple choice questions, and were given a small percentage of course marks based on their participation. Analysis of the data found that students contributed more questions and answers than expected and enjoyed using the tool. While most metrics of participation were not strongly correlated with exam performance, students who answered more questions correctly did tend to score higher on the final exam. Based on the positive student feedback, the author believes PeerWise is an effective tool to support Contributing Student Pedagogy.
