Thirteen Strategies to Collect Information on Student Learning and Provide Useful Feedback to Students

This resource outlines the importance of feedback based on NSSE research, and presents thirteen strategies to collect and provide individual feedback to students. Each strategy can be used as a graded activity, creating a variety of quiz formats. Each strategy originates from Angelo and Cross's Classroom Assessment Techniques , and is geared toward assessing and providing feedback about a specific type of learning, including application of concepts, recall, analysis, extrapolation, synthesis, and evaluation. Examples of actual classroom assessment techniques designed by UWM instructors are included with the strategies, with links to additional strategies and examples on CIPD's electronic reserve site (see access to CIPD e-reserve below).

Early Feedback Strategies for Courses with First-Year Students

This resource presents brief strategies for collecting and providing early feedback to first year students within the first four weeks of class. Designed specifically for courses with first year students, the collection of strategies can be implemented as graded assessment tools, and provide useful feedback to students regarding their progress and learning.
