Summative and formative assessment
05:48
In this section thought is given to the role of summative assessment in our classrooms.

Pointing the way
08:49
Here we discuss the importance of learning intentions and offer a working explanation of aims and objectives. Learning intentions are the Cinderella aspect of AFL - the neglected relation that makes something magical happen when done well. The importance of graduated process criteria is discussed and tips are given about use of student-speak and visualisation of LIs. Tried and trusted techniques such as WALT/WILF/TBI are raised and suggestions are offered to avoid falling into the trap of having 'wallpaper objectives.' These include cloze-captioning, throwing in red herrings, and allowing for con-construction. A word is given also on modelling and mysteries. By the end of this session you will be ready to set up your learning so that you can assess learning later.

Methods are provided to ensure students cannot opt out at all and thought is given to waiting time with the promotion of think-pair-share and pose-pause-pounce-bounce.

Can Udemy courses get you a job?

We have had many students, who have taken just Udemy courses, started a job as well as started freelancing with the skills they have learned.
