ACTIVE LEARNING through FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT
Based on her latest book

Shirley’s new presentation focuses on ways in which formative assessment creates an active learning culture and a ‘growth mindset’ for both pupils and teachers. Drawing on the exciting findings from her UK action research learning teams, Shirley provides examples of cutting edge practice, showing how these link with popular approaches, such as thinking skills.  All are brought together in a coherent way, covering the central role of pupils in planning, creating success criteria, effective questioning, classroom talk, defining quality and continual self and peer assessment and marking.  Shirley also shares her model of action research, tailor-made for schools to set-up their own learning teams. Tackling school-based development of formative assessment through action research is the most powerful way of embedding the ethos, culture and practice of active learning.
