You can use assessment data to improve student learning. Here are 4 ways to do this:
  1. Give each student his/her assessment data. Provide students with class time to reflect on the data and to write down 1-2 action steps they want to take to improve their performance.
  2. Use the data to modify your unit plans.
  3. Talk about common assessment data with teachers at your grade level and/or in your academic department. Collaboratively develop a team action plan for improving student learning.
  4. As a faculty, tabulate assessment data in terms of schoolwide outcomes. Use the tabulated data for setting learning targets for increasing student achievement of the schoolwide outcomes.
