This document discusses feedback and marking in the science classroom. It summarizes research showing that feedback is most effective when it reduces the gap between where students are and where they need to be. Feedback should provide clear next steps for students and cause them to think and monitor their own learning. The most useful feedback is focused on learning goals, prompts future action, and makes students do more work than the teacher. The document also discusses providing feedback before, during, and after lessons through techniques like pre-assessments, self-scoring quizzes, and dedicated reflection time.

How to Split Bills in the Odoo 17 POS ModuleCeline George
Bills have a main role in point of sale procedure. It will help to track sales, handling payments and giving receipts to customers. Bill splitting also has an important role in POS. For example, If some friends come together for dinner and if they want to divide the bill then it is possible by POS bill splitting. This slide will show how to split bills in odoo 17 POS.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

9. Marking and Feedback – Why bother?
‘…it’s effects are among the most variable’.
John Hattie, Visible Learning for Teachers, 2012
11. Marking and Feedback
What does the research say?
• Feedback aims to reduce the gap between where the student ‘is’ and
where they are ‘meant to be’.
• Teachers need to have a good understanding of where pupils are, and
where they are meant to be.
• This should also be made explicit to pupils.
• Pre-assessment.
• Learning goals/success criteria etc.
12. Marking and Feedback
What does the research say?
• However often we mark, what ever format our feedback takes, we
must ensure that the feedback we provide is acted upon by the
learner.
Feedback must, ‘…provide a recipe for future action’.
Dylan Wiliam, Embedding formative assessment, 2011.
13. Marking and Feedback
What does the research say?
• It is not the form that
feedback takes but the
effect it has on learners.
14. Marking and Feedback
What does the research say?
• Hattie describes 4 different levels of feedback:
1. Task and product.
• Correct or incorrect.
• ‘You need to go through what you have written, number the order in which things have
happened, and rewrite them in that order’.
2. Process.
• ‘…You’re asked to compare these ideas. For example, you could try to see how they are
similar, how they are different… How do they relate to each other’.
3. Self-regulation or conditional.
• Students monitoring their own learning.
• ‘Have you got any ideas why you got it wrong?’
4. Self.
• Praise!
15. Marking and Feedback
What does the research say?
• Learning is enhanced if pupils learn to ‘become their own
teachers’.
• How can we do this through marking and feedback?
• Timing.
• Scaffolding.
• Ability is incremental rather than fixed.
16. Marking and Feedback
What does the research say?
• In summary, feedback should:
• Provide a recipe for future actions.
• Cause thinking.
• Not be seen as an end-point.
‘Never grade students while they are still learning’.
Alfie Kohn.
• Be separate from praise.
• Be focused.
• Relate to the learning objectives.
• Be more work for the recipient than the donor.
• Less is more!
