Assessment and Learning Pocketbook


£7.99




Assessment and Learning Pocketbook (code:MP9781903776759)
Good assessment focuses mainly on improvement and is used to support progress. It helps learners to know how well they have learned and provides feedback on how they can do better; it encourages learners to support and help each other; it builds self-motivation, self-confidence and self-reliance. Sound familiar? These are the principles of formative assessment. They're at the heart of the national Assessment for Learning initiative and they form the core of the Assessment & Learning Pocketbook. You know the theory but how do you turn it into practice? That's where Ian Smith comes in.

Let Ian explain the difference between formative and summative assessment. Let him walk you through writing and sharing leaning intentions and success criteria; promoting high quality interaction in lessons, verbal and written feedback, self- and peer-assessment. You'll find classroom strategies and inspiring ideas galore.

Ian Smith has worked in Scottish education for more than 30 years. He was a secondary teacher for fourteen years and then worked in various posts at national level. In 1996, while at Scottish CCC, he wrote a paper entitled 'Teaching for Effective Learning' which is credited with having a major impact on thinking about classroom methodology in Scotland.
