Course Summary

This course offers an insight into the effectiveness of using formative assessment techniques when planning for both Functional Skills and GCSE English teaching. Methods for ensuring that impact is measured are covered plus the tracking of learners' incremental progress and encouraging them to take responsibility for their targets. It follows "Knowing your Learners' Starting Points" and complements some of the principles in "Marking and Assessing and feeding forward in English" around the setting of targets. It helps participants build their skills in this area.
