50 Quick Ways to Improve Feedback and Marking

50 Quick Ways to Improve Feedback and Marking takes you to the heart of raising achievement and ensuring great progress. It's through feedback that we give students access to our expertise. They take this, apply it, internalise it and, as a result, change their knowledge and understanding for the better.It's through marking that we gain an accurate sense of what students can do, where they are at and what support they need to get better. These two central elements of any teacher's job are not identical, but they do sit in close connection with each other. Marking provides the information we need to give high-quality feedback. Feedback is the information students need so that their next piece of work - or their next effort - is better than the last.This book is all about the practical strategies you can use to improve the quality, impact and efficiency of the feedback you give and the marking you do. These two aspects of teaching have a huge impact on students. Good, timely feedback which students understand and have a chance to implement can have a significant impact on achievement. Similarly, effective and efficient marking is essential if teachers want to gain a sound understanding of were their students are at, and want to modify and adapt their planning, teaching and future assessment accordingly.In this book you'll find fifty strategies, activities and techniques you can use to improve the quality, efficiency and effectiveness of your feedback and marking. Each one is explained and exemplified, leaving you in a great position from which to develop your practice and support your students.
