Purpose of this Professional Learning Experience: Effective feedback gives students information they can use to further their learning. Effective feedback “feeds students forward” in the formative learning cycle, and that can only happen if students are clear about the learning target they are aiming for. Effective feedback supports student motivation and self-regulation of learning, as well. Feedback can come from teachers or peers or from the students themselves. Students should be involved in all of these types of feedback, even when the feedback comes from the teacher.
Specific Learning Outcomes: This workshop will focus on Formative Assessment, paying specific attention to:
Define feedback and explain why feedback with student involvement is important for learning
Develop a repertoire of teacher, self, and peer feedback strategies that involve students
Recognize the characteristics of effective feedback in both oral and written feedback examples
Differentiate feedback for different learners
