内容説明

If we want our students to thrive in the impossibly complex, unpredictable world of the 21st century, we must concentrate on increasing educational achievement by increasing the quality of the teachers in our schools. new In this book Dylan Wiliam argues that quality of teachers is the single most important factor in the education system. He outlines the many possible ways in which we could seek to develop the practice of serving teachers and concludes that of these, formative assessment has the biggest impact on student outcomes. He looks at some of the popular initiatives that aim to increase student achievement, such as learning styles, and presents research that shows formative assessment practices have a much greater impact on educational achievement than most other reforms. Formative assessment functions to the extent that evidence about student achievement is elicited, interpreted and used by teachers and learners to make decisions about the next steps in instruction that are likely to be better than the decisions they would have made in the absence of that evidence. The five key strategies of formative assessment that Wiliam outlines are: Clarifying, sharing and understanding learning intentions and criteria for success Engineering effective classroom discussions, activities and learning tasks that elicit evidence of learning Providing feedback that moves learners forward Activating learners instructional resources for one another Activating learners as the owners of their learning Wiliam presents a summary of the research evidence that shows the impact of each of the above strategies, and offers over fifty practical techniques that teachers can use to incorporate the strategies into their classroom practice.

Dylan Youtube [ISBN: 9781742398112; 199 Pages; Published May 2011] [Author: Dylan Wiliam PhD; Age Suitability: All] Read what other professionals are saying about this book: "With precision, clarity and practical comprehensiveness, Wiliam gives us all we need to know to get deep and lasting success. Each of his five strategies is a gem; in combination, they are unbeatable" Michael Fullan, Professor Emeritus, University of Toronto "Dylan Wiliam's wonderful new book strips away the murk currently surrounding formative assessment. Deftly moving between research evidence and classroom practicalities, Wiliam provides a compelling vision of how formative assessment can enhance students' learning. For today's educators, this is truly a must-read!" W. James Popham, Professor Emeritus, UCLA "Wiliam's most recent work confirms his place in the front rank of global thought leaders in education. Teachers and school leaders will find this work enormously practical." Douglas Reeves, The Leadership and Learning Center "This is a must-have, must-read, must-put-into-immediate-action book for every teacher, principal and network leader. Dylan has made powerful coaching learning ideas accessible in a highly engaging way and makes the development of a learning system possible."
