Christopher J. Johnstone; Anne Hayes; Elisheva Cohen; Hayley Niad; George Laryea-Adjei; Kathleen Letshabo; Adrian Shikwe; Augustine Agu – American Journal of Evaluation, 2024
This article reports on ways in which United Nations human rights treaties can be used as a normative framework for evaluating program outcomes. In this article, we conceptualize a human rights-based approach to program evaluation and locate this approach within the broader evaluation literature. The article describes how a rights-based framework…

Background: Artificial intelligence, particularly natural language processing (NLP), enables automating the formative assessment of written task solutions to provide adaptive feedback automatically. A laboratory study found that, compared with static feedback (an expert solution), adaptive feedback automated through artificial neural networks…

Paul Fleckney; James Thompson; Paulo Vaz-Serra – Higher Education Research and Development, 2025
The higher education shift to remote learning due to mobility restrictions imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need to improve the student learning experience using more active learning models. One model is peer assessment. Despite positively impacting student learning, peer assessment uptake remains low, partly because designing…

Raymond MacDermott; Dekuwmini Mornah; Helen MacDermott – Marketing Education Review, 2025
Formative assessments, such as exit tickets, are effective tools for enhancing student reflection and understanding. While prevalent in K-12 education, their application in higher education remains underexplored. This study investigates the implementation of exit tickets in an undergraduate Principles of Marketing course, aiming to evaluate their…

Katerina Trcková; Roman Maršálek; Zuzana Václavíková – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
The article describes a mini-escape game with an environmental theme. The game was prepared using LearningApps and Google Slides. The mini-escape game comprised 7 subactivities: Crossword, Matching Pairs, Multiple-Choice Quiz, Cloze Test, Word Grid, Group Assignment, and Freetext Input. Through completion of these subactivities, students gradually…

Christel Wolterinck; Cindy Poortman; Kim Schildkamp; Adrie Visscher – European Journal of Teacher Education, 2024
Assessment for Learning (AfL) is complex requiring teacher competences for collecting, analysing and interpreting evidence of student progress, and for adapting instruction and learning accordingly. In this study, the four-component instructional design (4C/ID) model for complex learning was used to design a teacher professional development (TPD)…

Li, Ziqi; Yan, Zi; Chan, Kinnie Kin Yee; Zhan, Ying; Guo, Wu Yuan – Teacher Development, 2023
Successful implementation of formative assessment in classrooms relies on teachers' formative assessment literacy, which is typically supported by professional development programs. This study reports on the impact of a professional development program on a group of in-service primary teachers in Hong Kong. The authors investigated the…

Hill, Dilshara; Valckenborgh, Frank – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
A carefully constructed method of assessment using short, formative, invigilated in-tutorial quizzes is investigated to see how successful this method is compared to previous assessment tasks. We look at whether student engagement increased, given that students who enter university often face issues with the transition from school, and engagement…

Lauri J. Partanen – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
In this action research study, I propose a guided inquiry alternative to the traditional physical chemistry laboratory module where the equilibrium constant of acetic acid is determined conductometrically. I complement the guided inquiry structure with a 360° feedback support framework for the preparation and assessment of a laboratory report. The…

Simon Vurayai – Educational Practice and Theory, 2024
This study employed the Systematic Review (SR) methodology to examine the content and reasons for resisting the implementation of Continuous Assessment Learning Activities (CALA) in Zimbabwean Secondary schools. The Overcoming Resistance to Change (ORC) model was exploited as the analytical lenses. The study found that factors such as education,…

Bengs, Daniel; Kroehne, Ulf; Brefeld, Ulf – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2021
By tailoring test forms to the test-taker's proficiency, Computerized Adaptive Testing (CAT) enables substantial increases in testing efficiency over fixed forms testing. When used for formative assessment, the alignment of task difficulty with proficiency increases the chance that teachers can derive useful feedback from assessment data. The…

MacVicar, Theresa J.; Brodesky, Amy R.; Fagan, Emily R. – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2021
Determining what students know and understand, as well as what misconceptions they have, is essential to planning and providing targeted intervention and support. In this article, a teacher uses formative assessment interviews to uncover evidence of students' understandings and to plan targeted instruction in a mathematics intervention class. The…

Wu, Bin; Goff, Wendy – Early Years: An International Journal of Research and Development, 2023
There is a growing consensus in early childhood education and care (ECEC) that intentional teaching is pivotal for deep level learning, especially when teaching scientific concepts. However, intentional teaching alone does not always account for how educators communicate their intentions with children. To bridge this gap, we explore the…
