  1. Major influences on achievement leading to Creating a national assessment program John Hattie Visible Learning Laboratories University of Auckland Bergen, Norway October, 2008

  2. Influences on Achievement ? 0 Decreased Zero Enhanced

  3. Reducing Class Size on Achievement? What is the effect of reducing class size Hundreds of evaluations of reducing class size …. 0 Decreased Zero Enhanced

  4. Effect on Achievement over time? Reducing Class Size .20 1.0 0 Decreased Enhanced Zero

  5. The typical influence on achievement So what is the typical effect across • 800+ meta-analysis • 50,000 studies, and • 200+ million students

  6. Effect on Achievement over time? Typical Effect Size 0 .20 1.0 .40 Decreased Zero Enhanced

  26. Visible teaching & Visible learning • What some teachers do! • In active, calculated and meaningful ways • Providing multiple opportunities & alternatives • Teaching learning strategies • Around surface and deep learning • That leads to students constructing learning

  27. Visible Teaching – Visible Learning When students SEE themselves as their own teachers When teachers SEE learning through the eyes of the student and

  28. Teachers • Clear learning intentions • Challenging success criteria • Range of learning strategies • Know when students are not progressing • Providing feedback • Visibly learns themselves

  29. Students … • Understand learning intentions • Are challenged by success criteria • Develop a range of learning strategies • Know when they are not progressing • Seek feedback • Visibly teach themselves

  30. The Contrast • An active teacher, passionate for their subject and for learning, a change agent OR • A facilitative, inquiry or discovery based provider of engaging activities

  31. Activator or Facilitator ?

  32. Activator or Facilitator ?

  33. Message for Learning/Assessment • Balance of surface, deep, & constructed knowing • Teachers preach deep, students see surface! • Learning strategies • To reduce cognitive load • To use when stuck (welcome error!) • Requires deliberative practice • Builds expectations of “can do” • Thrives on challenge • Requires feedback

  34. What is Feedback?

  35. Priority to maximize FEEDBACK to THE TEACHER • Feedback is information provided by an agent (e.g., teacher, peer, book, parent, self/experience) regarding aspects of one’s performance or understanding.

  36. Purpose of feedback • provide alternative strategies to understand material • increase effort, motivation or engagement • confirm that the responses are correct or incorrect • indicate that more information is available or needed • point to directions that could be pursued • to restructure understandings These are the purposes of assessment

  37. Feedback is evidence about: • Where am I going? • How am I going? • Where to next?

  38. Frequency of feedback How much feedback does the typical student get in a typical classroom on a typical day?

  39. Assessment and Feedback:asTTle(Assessment Tools for Teaching and Learning)

  40. Tests are Feedback to the teacher • Whether their teaching methods have been successful or not • Whether their learning intentions are worthwhile & challenging • Whether students are attaining their desired success criteria • Which students have learnt or not learnt • Where teachers can capitalize on student strengths & minimize gaps • Where students are on the learning ladder • Whether they have a shared conception of progress • What is optimal to teach next Whenever we test in classes it is primarily to help teachers know:
