to … Train pupils over time to assess their work and the work of
others Plan for peer and self assessment opportunities in their
lessons Systematically explain the learning objectives, outcomes
and contributing success criteria behind each task Guide pupils to identify their next steps Frequently and consistently encourage pupils’ self-
reflection on their own learning Plan opportunities and time to allow pupils to do it!
Summary from ‘Working inside the black box’
(Black, Harrison, Lee, William – 2002) The criteria for evaluating and learning achievement must be transparent to pupils to enable them to have a clear overview.
Pupils should be taught the habits and skills of collaboration in peer assessment.
Pupils should be encouraged to keep in mind the aims of their work and to assess their own progress to meet these aims as they proceed.
Peer & self assessment make unique contributions to the development of pupils’ learning – they secure aims that cannot be achieved in any other way.
Advantages for the teacher
Pupils use each other to discuss, prepare and assess their work. They become independent learners

overview Quicker assessment, immediate feedback Pupils learn assessment criteria in an interesting
way, so they remember it and use it automatically. This makes us more effective
