Career skills with Rachael Roberts

Assessment for learning with Amanda Davies

Assessment for learning techniques mean that teachers can assess the effectiveness of their classes as they take place, and adjust and adapt to what their students need. Students participate actively and learn to understand what they’re learning and what they should do to improve.
