The importance of focusing your feedback on providing information to increase learning instead of using your comments to justify the grade reonated with me. I didn't really think of it that way. Letting the rubric provide justification for the grade but my questions and feedback will encourage addtional oppourtunites to learn was great advice.
Clear metrics provided within a rubric provide specific objectives for learning.
Feedback, especially specific, personalized and whenever possible, verbal will aid in student learning.
Assessments are important part of student success as well as feedback that needs to be given in a timely manner.
I will use both formative and sumative assessments to help me understand the level of learning that is happening and to provide myself with feedback on how effective is my teaching.
Feedback is one of the most important tool int he learning process.Rubrics are also key in helpong students know what ius to be expected.
Providing meaningful feedback is essential to learners. Formal feedback is provided in conjunction with a rubric and more detail. Its purpose is to provide information to increase the knowledge and skills of the learner instead of your comments used to justify your grade.
It is necessary to have a well developed rubric to inform what is expected from the student on a assignment and what they have to provide in order to attain a grade that they may desire.
We learned about formative and summative assessments and how to use rubrics with those assessments. It is also notated that providing peer to pear and instructor to peer feedback is very important when used correctly. This helps improve learning.
I think that when using the peer-to-peer feedback or assessment it is important to introduce and explain the process to students prior to use. This can be a great tool and anothe ropportunity for collaboration and learning, but it shouldn't be the reason some students don't want to participate. Once students learn the process, it will become somewhat automatic each time it is used.
Feedback is crucial to student growth and rubrics can help guide this process immensely!! Rubrics provide for consistency and growth by making sure things are emphasized the same from an objective point of view. Self-assessments allow for relfection that will also improve student growth.
This section helps to reiterate the importance of feedback and to also teach students how to use that feedback effectively. This also demonstrates the importance of communication between the students and the teacher.
Feedback needs to be specific to each student and consistant.
Feedback is imperative for student learning. There are various types of feedback that can help students. Rubrics are especially helpful because they identify specific objectives for more detailed feedback, but the student can use it as a guide for themselves as well.
I understand the need and use objectives in the course subject matter of provide to my students.
What I need to do moving forward is testing myself more before I hand out mid term practical exam just to see if revisions need to be made.
Sometimes after the fact it could be something minor or moderate that needed a change. I've revised teaching material before but sometimes it has happend after the fact.. it's a hit or miss.....like how come I didn't see that coming.
So now I will be putting into practice by test myself with the course material.
BUT I still know no matter what depending on the change of the audience meaning the students.. changes will be a constant measure. Formative assesments and Summative assesments are very important tools that I use assesing my students as a vocational ed instructor.
Feedback is key for the educator in regards to making sure the lesson being taught is understood by the students.
In my classes we always review each student's work for feedback from other students and myself. Everyone learns even more and are usually inspired to do better.
It is important to incorporate reflective and self/peer assessment to give more meaningful learning.
Assessments and communication are key to success in an online forum.
Feedback is essential in the learning experience. It will immediately relay what is of concern and what is correct. Also, using a Rubric is a way for students to readily assess their progress and understanding what has been taught, and show their progress.
I have learned that peer assessment provides students the opportunity to assess the work of other students and also learn from other students in the process.
