7. 5. Assessment for learning : a case study in mathematics education

   Author : Andreia Balan; Malmö högskola; []
   Keywords : assessment for learning; scoring rubrics; peer assessment; peer feedback;

   Abstract : The aim of this study was to introduce a formative-assessment practice in a mathematics classroom, by implementing the five strategies of the formative-assessment framework proposed by Wiliam and Thompson (2007), in order to investigate: (a) if this change in assessment practices had a positive influence on students’ mathematical learning and, if this was the case, (b) which these changes were, and (c) how the teacher and students perceived these changes in relation to the new teaching-learning environment. The study was conducted in a mathematics classroom during the students’ first year in upper-secondary school. READ MORE
