How to use assessment for learning in the classroom

The bestselling 'How to use assessment for learning in the classroom' gives classroom teachers everything they need to ensure their students make superb progress, no matter which subject or age group they are teaching. It is the number one tool for raising achievement in school.

The book is written by a practising teacher and is unashamedly practical throughout. It contains a wide range of activities, strategies and techniques which teachers can use to embed assessment for learning in their teaching. Everything in the book is generic, meaning it can be applied across the curriculum.

Sections include:

  • Introduction to AfL
  • How to elicit information about students’ learning
  • Peer-assessment activities
  • Self-assessment activities
  • How to give great feedback
  • Example strengths and targets
  • How to make AfL work for you.
