Recently I have begun using video feedback... I don't know if students watch them or not.
Assessment plans are not just for the student; they show where a learning deficit occurred. This will help you see what you did not teach effectively. Formative assessment is crucial to keeping your students and class on target. It will help you and your students better understand whether course progression is on target or if you need to help the student in an area where they feel lost.
Feedback is extremely important in order for the student to know how to better themselves. I will be more consistent doing this.
I learned that it is important for students to have a clear understanding of the rubric and learning objectives. There should be both formative and summative assessments used by students and instructors. Feedback is important and should be individualized and meaningful. However, instructors can also provide too much feedback.
I believe that this was a very important and helpful module for improving the grading process overall. Key Take-Away: Assessment is the vehicle to improved learning and teaching. Also: Formative assessments are provided within and throughout the course and are not designed to be graded. Summative assessments are provided at the end of a lesson, unit, or course and are designed to be graded. So, balancing both of these types of assessments is a very important process. Rubrics are also very important and helpful. Rubrics streamline the grading process while providing meaningful feedback and promoting learning. All of the details learned in this module will help to improve learning overall.
Meaningful feedback was what stood out the most. I now greatly understand the reason for a rubric. A rubric is helpful when wanting to give visual feedback on a student's work. Students have a visual on the expectations for a project. I can use a rubric to help students visually see what the standard is for writing their LRS papers. This will help me grade their paper in a fair way and give them feedback on why they obtain a certain grade
For our weekly course discussion which I grade according to a rubric, I will be more aware of pointing out the rubric requirements and how it will impact their grade for the assignment.
Provide feed back to the students.
The importance of peer-assessments
I am encouraged to start using more audio feedback for my rubric responses
Having immediate feedback for students via comments in test sounds like a great idea!
Meaningful feedback is essential for student success, therefore, we need to take time when drafting feedback.
Having a balance between formative and summative is ideal when teaching an online course because it provides the students as well as the teacher with what is being taught/learned. I also learned how to make a more thorough/ in depth rubric that will help students with specifics.
Providing meaningful feedback is imperative to the students learning and retention of the material being taught.
I learned what effective feedback should consist of and the varied methods I can deliver that.
I enjoyed the key components of feedback.
Formative assessments, integrated into instructional design, evaluate and adjust teaching methods to personalize education for diverse learning styles. Summative assessments, such as tests and presentations, were designed to align with course outcomes and Bloom's Revised Taxonomy levels to accurately assess students' understanding and skills.
Ive learned that feedback is not only nice ot have but necessary in order for myself ot become a better instructor but also help guide my students. Using such tools as a rubric to show what is expected and how everything will be graded
I understand the importance of effective assessments as well as meaningful feedback and how these lead to better learning outcomes.
I liked the concept of exit tickets. It is an easy technique to see whether the learners are having any issues prior to a summative assessment.
