Most of the frustration experienced by learners is poor, slow or inadequate feedback; the embarrassment of being asked questions in a classroom in front of others, even one-to-one by a human tutor, the fear of asking questions in a classroom or in a Zoom session, as you’d feel stupid, the lack of opportunity to ask for clarification or ask questions in a Zoom lesson, classroom or lecture, the email reply that takes days to come back, that solitary mark A-D and brief comment on a piece of work or general and non-specific comments like ‘needs more clarification’.

Reflecting on Feedback and Assessment

Reflecting on Feedback and Assessment | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
Educational feedback though, has two main areas: assessing students and teacher evaluation. These may be complimentary (or not), but very much a feature of many educators' days. In this sense, I'd like to share the following infographic on the types of feedback which is possible to give learners and further on, a couple of suggestions on feedback and professional development for educators.

And even worse, student follow through is an epic challenge for teachers .  It starts with the frustration when students don’t respond- or half-heartedly respond to feedback.  Then moves to the shame that such few students fail to follow through.  And, lastly, it’s the blame- we blame ourselves when students won’t commit to revising or reworking their assignments.

Formative assessment is an important tool teachers can use to target students' learning needs. When teachers know what students know (or don't know), they can better adjust their teaching to meet the kids right at their level. These digital formative assessment tools can help you do the job.

Martin Hawksey - Learning Analytics: Threats and opportunities

"My biggest fear is Learning Analytics just becomes ‘computer says no’. I’m reassured that there are many people working very hard to make sure this doesn’t happen, but in the glitz and glamor of ‘big data’, prediction algorithms and dashboards there is a danger that we start caring about the wrong thing. For me the biggest opportunity is analytics are used as feedback, helping inform the conversation."

Feedback in the classroom is often one-sided: the teacher gives feedback and the student receives it, generally relating to the quality of their work. Depending on the level of the students you teach, you may find yourself subject to student evaluation, but generally that only comes once a semester (at least at the university level), …

A Visual Chart on Summative Vs Formative Assessment ~ Educational Technology and Mobile Learning

A Visual Chart on Summative Vs Formative Assessment ~ Educational Technology and Mobile Learning | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

This post is born out of a discussion I had with a fellow teacher on the Facebook page of Educational Technology and Mobile Learning on the differences between summative and formative assessment. Luckily this discussion coincided with me reading Frey and Fisher's book " Literacy 2.0 : Reading and Writing in The 21st Century Classroom." and there was a section in which the authors talked about these differences in a subtle way by referring to formative assessment as assessment for learning and summative assessment as assessment of learning.

Caitlyn Tumo's curator insight, April 10, 2014 11:04 AM

Greg Mohlke's curator insight, April 13, 2014 8:57 PM

This at-a-glance chart really defines summative and formative assessment concisely. I'm going to keep this chart handy so I don't confuse the two-types of assessment in the future. 

Kenny Evans's curator insight, April 13, 2014 9:13 PM

This is a helpful chart to help distinguish the difference between summative and formative assessment. I will keep this handy for when I'm deciding if my assessment is one of the two.

To do that, we believe it’s imperative to build best-practice processes of assessment across an entire institution that enable: 1) faculty to have the support and tools needed to more effectively communicate feedback on performance to students; 2) students to have the support and tools needed to more deeply engage in a reflective learning process; and 3) administrators to better collect and measure data on teaching and learning with the purpose of using that data to improve student learning.

Strategies for Peer & Self Assessment for Easier Feedback | Tech Learning

Strategies for Peer & Self Assessment for Easier Feedback | Tech Learning | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

 It’s a truth for many educators--or has been at some point in our careers. Whether we’re looking at grading, assessment, or feedback, it’s challenging to respond effectively to student work. It’s even harder to do so consistently, in a timely manner, and without letting the work take over.

In my first few years teaching, I would have to reserve a day or two of my weekend to evaluate a few class sets of student essays. Projects, paragraphs, and any assignment that required feedback often became the focal point of my week, and too often I was looking backwards instead of forwards. I had to learn to find balance and to deliver feedback and grades more effectively so that the process takes less time and energy from me and gives more meaning to students--something I still struggle with.
