Effective Communication
• “The most powerful single modification that enhances achievement is feedback. The simplest prescription for improving must be ‘dollops of feedback’.”
- John Hattie (1992)

Summary of Research
• Feedback from classroom assessments should give students a clear picture of their progress on learning goals and how they might improve.
• Feedback on classroom assessments should encourage students to improve.
• Classroom assessment should be formative in nature.
• Formative classroom assessments should be frequent.

Effective Communication
• Provide students with descriptive feedback• Involve students in tracking and
communicating about their learning• Use grading practices that accurately
communicate about the student learning

What makes feedback effective?
• Describes features of work or performance• Relates directly to the learning targets• Points out strength and gives specific
information on how to improve.

Evaluative vs. Descriptive
• Evaluative feedback sums up achievement and assigns a label. It expresses a judgment.
• Descriptive feedback offers information that can be used by students to take action to improve.
