Have them do reflections as part of the assessment process. Teachers who use the Naiku assessment platform are doing this now. Students are using the laptops and mobile devices to do these reflectiosns.
We have been working on assessment for learning strategies during monthly PLC time for a few years now, and informing parents and students what those strategies are and how we are trying to use them classes in our monthly newsletters helps brings attention to our work. This week we toured classes and actually explained to classes directly what descriptive feedback is and why it is so important, as a lead off for “Feedback Month”. A grade 7 student asked, “If feedback is so important, shouldn’t every month be Feedback Month?”
Peter,
Great story. I’ll include it in next week’s column, along with a link to your blog.
