Using Formative Assessment

DYLAN WILIAM
"The key features of effective learning environments are that they create student engagement and allow teachers, learners and their peers to ensure that learning is proceeding in the intended direction. The only way we can do this is through assessment. That is why assessment is, indeed the bridge between teaching and learning." - Embedded Formative Assessment
