Using Classroom Assessment Techniques to Provide Feedback

Description

Classroom Assessment Techniques (Angelo & Cross, 1993) are simple methods that faculty can use to collect feedback, early and often, on how well their students are learning. The purpose of classroom assessment is to provide faculty and students with information and insights needed to improve teaching effectiveness and learning quality. The feedback gleaned through classroom assessment can be used by faculty to inform adjustments in their teaching practices. Faculty can also share feedback with students, using it to help them improve their learning strategies and study habits in order to become more self-directed, successful learners.
