formative assessment

This document discusses the impact of feedback from classroom assessments on student achievement. It references a study by John Hattie that found feedback to be the single most powerful factor for enhancing student achievement. The document then provides several recommendations for how feedback from classroom assessments should be implemented, including that it should provide a clear picture of student progress towards learning goals and how to improve, and should encourage students to improve. Tables from additional studies show percentile gains from different types of feedback, such as providing the right/wrong answers or explaining answers.
