Formative assessment provides guidance for teaching and learning through feedback. Three key points about formative assessment are:
1) Feedback should cause thinking in students rather than just be a mark or grade. Comments identifying student strengths and areas for improvement are more useful than scores alone.
2) Students must respond to feedback for it to be effective. Feedback is most useful when students are required to reflect on how to apply the feedback to improve their work.
3) Feedback and assessment should focus on learning objectives rather than just covering content. The goal is to support student mastery of key skills and understanding rather than completing a certain amount of material.
This document discusses strategies for actively engaging students in large classes. It suggests reducing anonymity between students and instructors by learning names and encouraging interaction before and after class. Instructors can also reduce physical distance by moving around during lectures. The document provides examples of in-class activities like interactive lecturing, brainstorming, polling with clickers, individual/group work with prompts, and activities reviewing course content. It emphasizes setting clear expectations, managing interactions, and ensuring accountability to promote participation from all students.
The document describes Vanderbilt University's Teaching-as-Research (TAR) Fellows program, which encourages graduate students to take a scientific approach to teaching. The program provides funding and mentorship for students to design teaching experiments. An example project tests whether hands-on analogies improve student understanding of radioactive decay concepts. Survey results found students could appropriately apply their new knowledge. The program has expanded learning and career opportunities for participants. It aims to make scientific teaching a widespread practice at research universities.
This document outlines several tools that can help teachers manage their students and evaluate their work, including student profiles to collect student information, learner logs to track student activities, self-graded quizzes for assessments, submission sharing to collect student work, and evaluation forms to provide feedback to students.

The document discusses using online repeatable quizzes to enhance student learning. It notes that common problems instructors face are students not reading textbooks, not studying, and being at different levels, making it hard to move lessons forward. The proposed solution is to use low-stakes, online, repeatable learning checks on Blackboard. This allows students to access quizzes easily and reinforces concepts through unlimited attempts. Setting quizzes up this way promotes self-regulated learning and mastery of material. Instructors must consider parameters like feedback, grading, time limits and number of questions when setting up quizzes.
Ba Year 1 Session 6 Acti Vote 09 10 Studentbensedman
The document discusses the benefits of using voting pods, also known as ACTIVote, for assessment in the classroom. Voting pods allow students to respond to teacher questions or polls using individual handsets, with responses displayed anonymously. This encourages participation from all students, including high achievers, low achievers, and nervous students. Teachers receive immediate feedback on student understanding to guide instruction. Assessment becomes painless, paperless, and stimulating for students.
The document outlines the steps to conducting a jigsaw activity in the classroom which involves dividing students into groups, assigning each group a topic to research, regrouping the students so that one "expert" from each original topic is in a new group to teach their topic to their peers, and then regrouping again for students to share what they have learned from the experts. The purpose is for students to teach other students, improve diversity and collaboration, and reinforce cooperative learning. Potential downsides are students getting distracted, not participating, and needing teacher oversight to confirm accuracy.
This document provides guidance and strategies for teachers to support disadvantaged students, known as Pupil Premium students, in the classroom. It identifies the top 5 strategies as: 1) avoiding ability grouping and instead using heterogeneous groups; 2) providing effective feedback and giving students time to reflect and act on feedback; 3) building independence and self-regulation through strategies like peer tutoring; 4) teaching meta-cognitive strategies to help students think about and evaluate their own learning; and 5) ensuring homework is accessible and focused on students' targets. The document also provides advice on identifying Pupil Premium students, seating arrangements, literacy support, goal setting, and engaging parents.
The document describes prototypes created by students for helping high schoolers recognize the soft skills they acquire. Prototype A involved students creating a skills map to track their progress. Some students said it would be too burdensome without time in school. Prototype B instead proposed students create art each period showing their skills growth. Students strongly preferred this as it resonated more emotionally and required deeper thinking than just filling out a map. They felt it would motivate students more to demonstrate their skills through art. Feedback noted art may still need a reflection piece to clarify which skills were being shown.

It provides tips for implementing dedicated improvement and reflection time (DIRT) to ensure students adequately engage with feedback.
Webinar: Assessing to Inform Teaching and Learning: A Guide for LeadersDreamBox Learning
This webinar focused on formative assessment strategies for teachers. It discussed five key formative assessment techniques: observations, interviews, show me activities, hinge questions, and exit tasks. These techniques provide evidence of student learning through activities like observing students, asking them questions, having them demonstrate their understanding, and completing culminating tasks. The webinar emphasized that formative assessment should be used flexibly on a daily basis to inform teaching and help students learn.
The document summarizes key findings from the HERE Project conducted from 2008-2011 on student retention and engagement at universities. The project examined factors influencing student doubting and likelihood of withdrawing, as well as the impact of university programs on retention. It found that approximately one-third of first year students experience doubts about continuing their course, and doubters are more likely to withdraw. Doubters generally report a poorer quality experience than non-doubters. The primary reasons for doubting relate to students' perceptions of their course, and doubting peaks before and after Christmas. The toolkit developed from the findings provides universities with recommendations to improve retention and student experience.
This document discusses the importance of feedback in education. It notes that formative feedback, given during a course to enable changes and improvements, is more useful than summative feedback given after completion. Effective feedback should guide learning, focus on course outcomes, and help students become independent learners. The document also outlines strategies for incorporating formative feedback in online courses using learning management systems like Moodle. These strategies include using short feedback activities to check understanding during lessons.
This document discusses challenges with feedback and assessment in higher education. It notes that students often do not find feedback useful as it feels disconnected from future work and there is inconsistency between markers. The document explores how to improve feedback through more dialogue and formative assessment. Case studies show that formative tasks work best when they are low-risk, engage students in reflection, and are linked to summative assessments. The key is to make assessment a learning process rather than just evaluation.

December 10, 2009:"Creating a Strong School Culture: Inspiration from Houston...Edutopia
Presenters: Chris Barbic, founder of the YES Prep Public Schools, Mark DiBella, school director at YES Prep North Central, and Mayra Valle, a senior at YES Prep North Central
Target audience: Ideal for teachers and administrators interested in strengthening the culture at their schools
Anyone who has worked in public education knows that school culture can make or break the experience. Great teachers, programs, and practices succeed best only with a culture that supports them. In Houston's YES Prep Public Schools, educators put culture front and center, and it's a major force behind their success. Teachers support each other and constantly seek to help their colleagues improve. They build relationships with students to help them thrive even under the schools' rigorous demands.
The end result: happy teachers, and hundreds of low-income students becoming the first in their families to attend college. There's no magic involved -- just good ideas, dedicated people, and deft execution. In this session, YES Prep leaders explain what they do, how they do it, and how you can put some of these ideas in action at your school, too.
