Assessment for Learning
Assessment is essential to effective Teaching. Good teachers constantly assess learning, sometimes explicitly and sometimes in the bustle of a busy classroom. We are using this staff area of our site to share some key effective strategies to promote learning and set targets to challenge students. Can I please encourage you to share your ideas by sending them to amckavanagh682@c2kni.net.
"Teaching, Thinking and Assessment for Learning have much in common. Both involve pupils in talking and thinking about learning and developing a language for doing so: both encourage pupils to take control of their own learning, increasing levels of motivation and engagement." (Anne d’ Aechevarria)
