Feedback As Formative Assessment
This week Edutopia has had an excellent article called Make It Count:Providing Feedback as Formative Assessment. John Hattie's mantra "feedback must be timely,relevant, and action oriented" is highlighted and the article goes on to explore how other experts describe feedback as a formative assessment tool. Emily Wray's RISE Feedback Model is interesting as it encourages teachers to give feedback that is not only informative but moves students towards improvement.
This article also explores a variety of technology tools that enable "timely, relevant and action oriented" feedback.
