EDPD301 - Assessment Task 2 : Formative Assessment, Connection: Providing…
-
Connection: Providing meaningful feedback to students can help to positively impact their academic achievement.
-
-
Disagreement: Some research has shown that the use of peer or self assessment has had no general positive effect on students academic performance
-
-
Disagreement: Although there is research that proves that feedback has a substantial impact on student motivation and behaviours, there are some contradictory studies that suggest that there is limited impact on student motivation and behaviours.
-
-
Connection: Professional development in digital formative assessment has become important due to the increase of digital technologies in classrooms and the positive effects this form of assessment has on students.
-
-
Connection: Students who have positive experiences in formative assessment, are more likely to create and achieve their own learning goals.
-
-
Disagreement: Some research shows that, although feedback can have an immense impact on student learning, if not done effectively it can harm student motivation and progress.
-
Agreement: Many articles highlight the need for teacher education and professional development in areas of formative assessment and have proven that this quality learning experience can benefit both the teacher and the students.
-
Agreement: Research in this area agrees that the use of formative assessment assists teachers in planning goals as it provides a clear outline of student progress during the teaching and learning cycle which can inform future learning.
-
Agreement: Most research articles agree that formative assessment positively benefits students academic outcomes.
-
-
Research gap: Most studies focus on the effect of formative assessment in mathematics or science, meaning there is limited focus on other KLA’s and formative assessment’s impact on those KLA’s (eg English, creative arts, PE etc…).
Research gap: What are the effects of only using formative assessment as the only form of assessment in classrooms? What impacts would this have on student behaviours and academic achievements.
Research gap: Majority of the articles have been studies completed on higher education students, it was difficult to find articles on primary students. Why?
