Guided reading questions (GRQs) are a formative assessment activity to facilitate student learning. We conducted four experiments to test if GRQs improved student performance on evaluative assessments. Experiment 1 compared test scores between classes that received GRQs or not. Experiment 2 modeled the impact of multiple formative assessments,…

A significant role in educational assessment is played by measuring behavioural changes based on clearly specified educational objectives and meaningfully interpreting the results. One of the most significant strategies for evaluating a student's learning performance in the classroom is formative assessment. Formative assessment systems…

Recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI) have significantly influenced educational technologies, reshaping the teaching and learning landscape. However, the notion of fully automating the teaching process remains contentious. This paper explores the concept of hybrid intelligence (HI), which emphasizes the synergistic collaboration…

As the number of online educational courses continues to grow, it is imperative that we also incorporate effective research-based practices such as the use of formative assessment. This study aimed to examine the relationship of formative self-assessment to academic achievement and self-efficacy in online graduate courses. The research included a…

Evidence-based practices are backed up by research evidence. This means there is broad consensus from rigorously conducted evaluations that they work. Teachers, educators and policymakers need to determine how applicable education evidence is to their context when considering adopting new evidence-based practices. Research conducted in different…

Increasingly, basic science educators at medical and health science programs are faced with the challenge of delivering fundamental science content using evidence-based pedagogical approaches that build students' fund of knowledge while also supporting their development as self-regulated learners. This has led to an increased use of active…

Formative assessment is essential for improving teaching and learning, and AI and visualization techniques provide great potential for its design and delivery. Using NLP, cognitive diagnostic and visualization techniques designed to analyse and present students' monthly exam data, we developed an AI-enabled visual report tool comprising six…

This study evaluates the effectiveness of an intervention of formative assessments with a clicker-based technology on anxiety and academic performance. We use a randomized experiment in physics education in one school in Dutch secondary education. For treated students, the formative assessments are operationalized through quizzing at the end of…

General Chemistry courses are often challenging for first-year college students preparing for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) programs. These courses are among the STEM gateway courses in which many students struggle to get through, or are weeded out. This is partly due to the use of ineffective study strategies such as…

Although corrective feedback (CF) has been studied, more studies still need to be conducted on this variable to check its effects on language learning. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of teachers' written and verbal CF during the formative assessment (FA) on English as a foreign language (EFL) learners' academic…

The study was designed to determine the effect of assessment methods on students' academic achievement in the course of Curriculum Development at undergraduate level in the University of the Punjab. Pre-test post-test quasi experimental design was used for the present study. The sample of the study consisted of 87 students who were present in two…

In a traditional classroom of mixed ability levels, it is recommended that differentiation is the answer to helping all students achieve success (Heacox, 2012). This necessitates a shift from a "one size fits all" approach to one of greater emphasis on the individual in the learning process. While teachers seek ways to look at teaching,…

Student feedback is established as an imperative learning and teaching technique, but feedback from students is less likely. The potential of feedback to boost learning outcomes refers to scholarly writing and is considered together as one of the most impressive methods for enhancing the success of students. In education, there is, nevertheless a…

The study was designed to address how teachers' self-efficacy influenced student achievement through the use of a formative assessments in the classroom. Student achievement and learning outcomes are the primary focus for educators, and the constant quest to improve student learning is a common theme. The problem addressed was low levels of…

This case was written to encourage educators to reflect on what it means to provide high-quality instructional supervision in an era of accountability when the American public education system is heavily influenced by reform efforts that affect how students learn and how teachers are supported as instructors, and pressures school systems face to…
