Imagine that one simple strategy could boost your student’s results by 28 percentile points. Would you use it? Of course you would! Research shows that giving feedback can have that large of an impact. Giving specific, timely feedback that is linked to a learning objective is one of the most potent teaching strategies teachers can use with all ages and across all subjects. If you want to help your students do better, give them more feedback.
“Feedback is among the most powerful influences on achievement.” John Hattie
