How can teachers capitalize on data about student learning that are generated in their classrooms every day? How can this information best be collected and used to increase student learning?
Effective feedback is a great way for teachers to use collected data in order to improve student learning. Unfortunately, feedback opportunities are scarce in most classrooms (Bransford, Brown, & Cocking, 1999). Teachers can create more opportunities for effective feedback and use collected² formative3 data to improve students’ learning.
