Feedback

So what happens in the video when there is not a shred of formative feedback? We see the "supervising" alien checklisting the underling. We all laugh and see what happens when there is an absense of formative feedback. It is an important component of the the assessment process. If give us as teachers and the students a baseline and a ruler relative to learning goals. It helps students answer the questions "What knowledge or skills do I aim to develop? How close am I? What do I need to do next? Giving effective feedback is a skill that we all must master.

So you may be asking yourself, how does this all fit together? We have visitors coming this week; I've been asked to update my student work display. How does this fit together? You display shows several things. One, it demonstrates to you and student what is valuable. Secondly, it answers the questions "What might student work look like as a result of a rigorous mini or focus lesson?" Thirdly, it allows others a view into your classroom.
